It's a matter of taste, I think.  Lua itself went from the 2nd form
('internal iterators') like table.foreach to the 1st form ('external
iterators').  A little less clunky, and coroutines make the 1st form
possible for even quite awkward operations like traversing a binary
tree.

Pick one and use it consistently, that seems to be the main thing ;)
