----------------------------------------
I'd like to propose some sugar to Object#then
There should be `Object#then_if(condition, &block)`
The block should only be applied when the condition is true,
otherwise the object should be returned without applying the block.
Rationale:
I frequently use `Object#then` with Rails to extend queries like this:
```ruby
foo.then {|query|
if(condition)
query.where(zip:zap)
else
query
end
}
```
by using the proposed `Object#then_if` the example could be simplified to:
```ruby
foo.then_if(condition) {|query|
query.where(zip:zap)
}
```
I believe that this also applies to a lot of other use cases,
i.e. only applying some transformation if some condition is true,
but otherwise leaving the result untouched.
