Implement collection helpers

[pepf]

A couple of functions are related to collections rather than templates, using the collection helpers package we can re-use these functions over multiple templates and still provide some sort of structure.

That's a nice package! If you look at the code, it's quit short (18 lines of code) and quite brilliant. What would be some use cases for us?

• playlists
  • automatically join a playlist with authors and songs?
  • helper for extracting all contributing users?
  • helper for users that are currently playing a song in that playlist?

Yes playlist helpers like that would also help structuring :)

For users:

• isOwnerOf(playlist)
• isOnline
• isFollowing(user)

Things like that ;)
