    I think we should use an interface `ILambda` similar to java's counterpart: 
https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/blob/3.2.7/gremlin-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tinkerpop/gremlin/util/function/Lambda.java#L33
    
    `Lambda.Groovy()` and `Lambda.Python()` could return `ILambda` instances. 
That way we can have a compile type check for methods like `Filter()`, 
`Until()`, etc... to accept only `ILambda` instances.

> Gremlin.Net should support lambdas. We already discussed this in [the pull 
> request for TINKERPOP-1752|https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/712]. 
> Here is what [~spmallette] said over there:
> {quote}
> Any reason we don't support lambdas? Even if .NET can't support them natively 
> for some reason wouldn't we minimally support the ability to pass a 
> python/groovy/etc lambda? it's kinda weird that way, but i think back to the 
> point that kuppitz made on the dev list the other day where he stated that he 
> doesn't always find a way out of using lambdas in production systems he works 
> on - so ultimately users will need that kind of capability i think.
> {quote}
> C# lambdas would require some kind of C# parser on the server side, so at 
> least in the beginning a way to send lambdas from already supported languages 
> in Gremlin.Net should be enough.
