Inferring lambda parameter types in an argument position

[Llewellyn Falco]

I'd also like to pipe in regarding the naming.
Since we won't have extension methods, and therefor can't change the names
of the methods easily, I would really like to suggest we use the mapping to
SQL syntax. It's much easier to understand and consume.

MyList<Y> newList = list
   .map( #{ x -> new Y(x) } )
   .filter( #{ y -> y.IsFunny() } );

MyList<Y> newList = list
   .select( #{ x -> new Y(x) } )
   .where( #{ y -> y.IsFunny() } );

select, where, groupby, orderby

we are already familiar with the name and concept.
