iterableDiagonal function

List<String> iterableDiagonal(List<List<String>> _il, int sw, String caller)

NO!!! Testing if we can #deprecated this Screen-sized matrix pierced with staggered list elements. TODO change all box-methods to use Map<String,String> Usage: Who is calling this: Effort-ShowUserDiagonal
