The post above sums it up for me. We have next() for one to a few, islice for several to zillions, and a for-enumerate-break also for several to zillions. Cases handled, with or without import.
The parameter to next() sounds like a reasonable thing to add however, doesn't seem like it would hurt anything but the use of islice.
If any syntax is chosen, hope it won't include "*" as that definitely says "unpack" to me, as that's what I say when reading it (without a space afterward).
