You don't like lambda? Fine, define an external function first. Then you can write:
filter(pred, (f(x) for x in seq))
There's no violation of DRY, there's no redundancy, there's no lambda, there's no "y" variable needed. What's ugly about it?
I think its great and that it kills any justification for the proposal.

I hate it. It mixes map/filter style and comprehension style; and the fact it does so in a single line only makes it worse. Not that it would be any better in two lines.
Taking this further, using only map/filter style like this filter(pred, map(f, seq)) takes two steps. Why is it so bad that doing it in a listcomp (el for el in (f(y) for y in seq) if el > 2) takes two steps as well? Georg -- Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no less. Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
