Replying to [comment:6 durdinator]:
> Why a significant syntax change instead of a one-liner filter?
Because it looks simpler (and it's a syntax extension, really) and because
then you're stuck with a pointless `item` context var.
Neither of which are convincing arguments. And talking about this at
sprint, it seemed like the core would just prefer to have a new filter
named something separate anyway so I don't hold much hope for my patch
really :)
