Request: if 'in' operator

[al james]

Hi there...

Just thinking that an 'in' operator would be very useful for the for
block.

E.g.

{% if value in values %}
In the list!
{% else %}
Not in the list!
{% endif %}

What do you think?

I think it would be good to have a collection of filters that match
the most requested django ones. And the ones at these 3 links. It's on
my list for some day.

Improving the if_tag is on the way,
=========================

rather than implementing a complex expression parser, i will keep the
current simple implementation but adding the concept of tests,

These are just some examples i can think of, feel free to provide
suggestions on this

{% if variable is boolean %}

{% if list contains item %}

{% if "something" matches "some" %}


Filter improvement
===============
Django contains large amount of filters, H2o currently supports a
subset of them and filter are one area been lacking a bit, since
mostly i use a lot of filters from StringFilters and UrlFilters classes.

If there are a filter very useful filters for you and h2o doesn't
support yet, please add to this feature request wiki page. if you are
curious how to implement them then fork h2o -> add a new filter and
send me a pull request on github

Improved if tag sounds good! I was trying to work out how to add a
operator to the existing if tag code, but could not!

To be honest, I agree that django suffers from 'feature bloat' and
that h2o should keep it light and simple (yet extensible)....
