I agree with Raymond. Allowing a non-argument iter() runs the risk of someone messing up and forgetting the arguments and yet having no error that they did so. And considering how easy it is to get an iterator of an empty list or tuple I don't see a benefit.

Thanks for the suggestion, Jurjen, but I'm closing this as rejected.
