    The purpose of have struct state is to enable applications to 
allocate iterator states on their execution stack or embedding iterator 
states in larger structs to avoid an extra malloc()/free().

    Do you foresee that the upcoming new underlying algorithm of hash 
tables will need to dynamically allocate iterator states?
