I believe this may not be necessary at all. One thing I thought to test was whether iteration like this worked without it, but it does, it hits the @adjoint getindex rule:
julia> function iter(vofa)
s = 0
for a in vofa
s += prod(a)
end
s
end;
julia> gradient(iter, va)[1]

Unrelated to the PR, but this seems like it allocates quite a bit, when iterating a VectorOfArray. I guess that using Fill(0.0, size(Δ)) would often make Δ′ have an abstract type?

Yes, it would make it an abstract type and sometimes hurt inference. Then we'd have to rely on union optimizations and pray.

Relying on union optimizations might be the right idea here though, I'll have to check.
