The Containers clause often uses "references, pointers, or iterators" which
14+
is verbose, and needs to be said in full whenever talking about iterator
15+
invalidation. It would be helpful to have a term of art that refers to all
16+
of them, something like "element references" or to avoid any confusion with
17+
actual references, "element indicators".
