Okay,

I would like to propose that Transducers be considered for addition to the 
Swift core.

"Transducers are a powerful and composable way to build algorithmic 
transformations that you can reuse in many contexts…"

There are ways to build them w/out any language modification but they are not 
as efficient as alternative expressions.
Here are some example implementations to give you an idea.

I look forward to your thoughts and comments.
