I think what the OP wants is something that stops after finding n true 
items.

It's a more general form of what 'any' and 'all' do - 'any' stops when 
it finds 1 true item and 'all' stops when it finds 1 false item.

In general, you might want to stop when you find n true items or n false 
items, or whatever.
