#9394 closed feature (wontfix)

nextUntil/prevUntil take functions

Description

It would be nice if nextUntil and prevUntil could take callbacks rather than selector strings. So the callback would be executed on each sibling in turn. When the function returns true, the selection should end. This would mean that complex selectors would be unnecessary: it would be possible to specify a much more readable (and, I'd guess, faster) function instead.

-1, can be achieved with existing API

-1, I dunno, I'd expect selection to be faster and faster... so the idea a function called on all elements of a superset of a selection will be faster :/
