> So why do we have a special guard for this filter thing to begin with?

Because the algorithm for NodeIterator/TreeWalker doesn't safely handle the
case when the filter modifies the iterator/walker location, last I checked.

If it's changed to do that, we could probably remove the recursion check here.
