FWIW I just took a quick look at ElementTree 1.3alpha, and:

# compatibility (FIXME: preserve list behaviour too? see below)
    getiterator = iter

getiterator() is (currently) an iterator (generator), just as it was in lxml pre-2.0. I remember some discussion on this list with regard to that.

I for one think it counter-intuitive for getiterator() to return a list, so I think lxml got that right in the first place.
