Is that a signifigant benefit? Considering that you'll have to keep
track of the tail of the list as well as the head; it will make the
code a (minor) deal more complex; and increase memory usage per item
in the list? Unless there's a better reason for doubly-linked lists
than more quickly removing items from lists (which isn't terribly time
consuming as is), I don't see a reason to bother with it...
