I see that as a 'temporary' solution, otherwise we wouldn't need 'if'
inside of list comprehensions either.

We have if inside list comprehensions? I didn't know that, could you
provide an example?
elems = [4, 1, 9, 6, 3, 8, 3, 9, 2]
small_elems = [x for x in elems if x < 5]
print str(small_elems) # 4, 1, 3, 3, 2
#leading_small_elems = [x for x in elems while x < 5]
#print str(leading_small_elems) # 4, 1
