But I actually don't really see much utility in either of these. Do you have some examples of use, and how they're a commonly abstracted pattern that deserves using up namespace because of the utility of a common vocabulary?

As mentioned in another reply, the select treats the source list like an unordered (perhaps multi) set. I was using something quite similar in a scrabble dictionary lookup to get all the ways to 'select' a tile from the current hand, returning [ (Tile,Remaining Hand)].
