I support idea to have such feature, sometimes it really need.
Could you try to point out whats wrong with map & filter?
assert(9.iota.filter!"a%2".map!"a*a".equal([1, 9, 25, 49])
map: 1 element -> 1 element
filter: 1 element -> 0..1 element(s)
emit: 1 element -> 0..infinite elements
This feature is more generic then map() and filter() together.
But proposed implementation is not good. I think this is good
place for generator function with yield.
If map() will accept generators and process it as expected,
different from ordinary functions, then additional emit() method
is not needed. And filter() too :)
