How about using arrays in data structures to sequence? I seldom use
qlist because this is more versatile. If you pack all the important
data for each step of a sequence into an element of an array, you can
call up any step easily, as many times as you like. I made a quick
example patch. It takes a little more patching than a qlist, but, if
I understand correctly, it does exactly what you want. Does this
help?
