suggestion for Averager

[Rick Riolo]

I don't know if you plan to support the Averager object
into the future, but if so, it would be nice to have
a way to specify a filter, eg
    andFilterUsing:  M(getAgentIsGreen)
where getAgentIsGreen would return 0 or 1 
(or true or false) when sent to each object
in the list passed to the Averager, and the Averager would only 
include those that returned true in its calculations.
This would be convenient when a list contains different
subgroups which one might like to average over.

(or is there a way to do this with existing tools?)
