For now there are many usefull builtin functions like "any", "all",

That's quite popular problem, there is a discussion of how to
perform it on stackoverflow - all suggestions are either slow
or not very elegant.
What do you think about it?
I don't know if it's common enough to warrant being a built-in, but I know I've
needed it several times, and wrote my own.
