Do we even need a PEP or is there a volunteer who'll add any() and all() for me?

There is an interesting proposal in the forum:

""" He proposes that

[x in list if x > 0]

(which is currently undefined) be exactly equal to:

[x for x in list if x > 0] """

What about that?

And, don't you want to save any() and all() for junctions, like those in Perl 6? <har, har...>
