As someone mentioned earlier in the thread, #doWithIndex: has the advantage
of mirroring the argument order (although this still should be documented),
and it's the one most people are probably most familiar with, so IMHO it
makes sense to standardize on that.

I like withIndexDo: because code like

so how would you name the current #do: if you had the choice?

I still think this looks very logical:

#do:
#do:separatedBy:
#doWithIndex:
#doWithSomeOtherSpecialty:andEvenMoreStuff:

And then there still ist the question if the order of the arguments should be changed:

today:

do: [:each| ]
doWithIndex: [:each :index| ]

future:

do: [:each| ]
withIndexDo: [:idx :each | ]

Do you really think that is better?

I think that if we move the withIndex part to the beginning of the message, it overstates the importance of the fact that we also need the index inside the iteration block.

aCollection withIndexDo: aBlock

reads like

"a collection with index"�� do

This would make sense if it was a Collection with an Index.
