This is a crucial question – should is_list function like
is_numeric($some_string), where is_list just tells you about the keys in
the array at a given point in the program, or should it function like
is_int, where it tells you about the type. I lean towards the latter (which
would make the implementation of is_list simpler, but would complicate
everything else.
