Good point.

What are the cases not covered by the lists module?
filter/2, partition/2, matching/guarded list comprehensions, etc?

I'm not trying to say there are no such cases or that an improvement
can't be made -- I just can't think of a situation off the top of
my head that would be served by something like lists:mapfind/3,4.
