Bug description
In module List there is "map"+"mapi" "iter"+"iteri"
"rev_map"... but no "rev_mapi" :(
Any particular reason ?
IMHO this seems like a inconsistency.
There should be either have map + mapi AND rev_map + rev_mapi OR map + rev_map.
I opt for the former (and pledge to add rev_mapi) :)

FWIW, other iterators are missing the "i" variant as well: fold_left, fold_right, iter2, map2, fold_left2, fold_right2, rev_map2, but also for_all, exists, for_all2, exists2, find, filter, find_all, partition.
rev_map is just an optimisation of rev o map, so I see it as a pragmatic addition driven by need more than consistency. If we mark out optimisations, then we can worry about consistency for the remainder of the interface.
That said, folds don't need indexed variants, since one can just pass a counter in the accumulator. If we could also argue that indices are less useful in predicates (my guess), then we would be left with rev_mapi and rev_map2i as candidates for inclusion.
This issue has been open one year with no activity. Consequently, it is being marked with the "stale" label. What this means is that the issue will be automatically closed in 30 days unless more comments are added or the "stale" label is removed. Comments that provide new information on the issue are especially welcome: is it still reproducible? did it appear in other contexts? how critical is it? etc.
