You're right that _I_ won't need it.  But my
impression is also that Emacs doesn't need it.

I guess you feel strongly that you are going
to need it?  Or that Emacs will?

Typically in a case like this (some simple
code that people write and use over and over)
we find that users have written local named
functions for such things, which they use.

That was the case, for instance, for things
like `remove-if(-not)'.  Because people wrote
such functions locally so much, for multiple
libraries, we decided to add them to Emacs.

Is something like that the case here?  Do you
(for example) already define a named function
for this, for your own use?

If no one actualy does that, and people are
fine with (lambda () t), then, yeah, I'd think
E(macs)AGNI.
