Project: Beam
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: sdk-ideas

There are a variety of use cases which would benefit from native support for
conditional iteration.
For instance,
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31654421/conditional-iterations-in-google-cloud-dataflow/31659923?noredirect=1#comment51264604_31659923
asks about being able to write a loop like the following:
PCollection data = ...
while(needsMoreWork(data)) {
data = doAStep(data)
}
If there are specific use cases please let us know the details. In the future
we will use this issue to post progress updates.
