Now that both list and bytearray support the clear() method (see issue bpo-10516), MutableSequence.clear() has to be implemented.

This is pending on commit for issue bpo-11386, which fixes the exception thrown by bytearray.pop() when the bytearray is empty.

s/has to be/could be/

But yes, this would be a worthwhile addition to MutableSequence :-)

The non-abstract methods of MutableSequence and other classes currently seem to have no unit-tests. Any ideas about the best testing strategy for them?

Creating a minimal concrete subclass and testing with that would be the obvious thing.

Please also update the table entry for MutableSequence in Doc/library/collections.abc.rst
