Duh :-(

Good news is that we use an iplist, so it has a sentinel:

// The ilist class is implemented by allocating a 'tail' node when the list is
// created (using ilist_traits<>::createSentinel()).  This tail node is
// absolutely required because the user must be able to compute end()-1. Because
// of this, users of the direct next/prev links will see an extra link on the
// end of the list, which should be ignored.

So you can use its regular insertion logic.
