Like izip_longest and combinations_with_replacement? ;-)
I care about readability here more than consistency with the bulk of itertools
names. "first" ends with "t" and "true" begins with "t", which makes
"firsttrue" an eyesore. "first_true" strikes me as very easy to read, spell,
remember and understand.
Offhand I don't know what "nexttrue" is supposed to mean (like "if that's
supposed to mean the first true iterate, why didn't they say 'first' instead of
'next'?").
