I'm curious, what do you guys think about these?

(1) Lambdas for signal/slot
(2) Lambdas for LINQ-like set filtering
(3) ???
(4) Profit!

I like that your  "Queryable" example explicitly handles "Zero-Or-One" and
"Zero-Or-Many" (IMHO explicit both are required).

I also have implemented my own version of "lambdas" with Functors, and it
works nicely.  For the trivial stuff, lambdas would probably be easier; for
the "heavy" stuff, Functors are probably better.
