OK, so your suggestion:
g = (n for n in range(100) if n*n < 50 or raiseStopIteration())
really means "return in in the range 0-99 if n-squared is less than 50
or the function raiseStopIteration() returns True".
How would this get the generator to stop once n*n >=50? It looks
instead like the first time around, StopIteration will be raised and
(presumably) the generator will terminate.
I still find it odd to invent new syntax for simple things like
def quit(): raise StopIteration
gen = itertools.imap( lambda x: x if x <= 50 else quit(),
(i for i in range(100)) )
for i in gen: print i
