I'm against it. While I sympathise with some of the reasons behind it, I feel 
there are better solutions than removing this feature, and that at the very 
least doing so now would be premature as we have yet to see how removing where 
from conditionals will impact people's grasp of it on for loops. (currently 
confusion stems from the ambiguity compared to while where).

I don't believe so; I think that the justification for removing the feature 
needs to be stronger than it is, and that other solutions may have better merit.

I feel not; personally I find where more Swift-y than using .filter() or 
if/guard continue, but this appears to be highly subjective.

Participated quite a bit in the discussion.
