What is fine common name for Iterator-like interface, which has suspend hasNext ?

ChannelIterator has similar contract

[tseisel]

AsyncIterator ? That's how EcmaScript named its Promise-based interators

[turansky]

Suspend != async in common case

[turansky]

Suspend > async, that is why we can’t you “async” prefix

Could steal the name from the .NET world and use Enumerable<out T> (alternative for Iterable<T>) and Enumerator<out T> (alternative for Iterator<T>)... ideally making Enumerator<out T> implement Closeable so upstream resources can be cleaned up.

confusable with Java's old Enumeration interface though

Coroutine + Iterator = Coriterator

Susperator
