There are currently exactly 10 KVC Collection operators : * @count, * @sum, * @avg, * @min, * @max, * @unionOfObjects, * @distinctUnionOfObjects, * @distinctUnionOfArrays, * @distinctUnionOfSets, The docs about KVC Collection Operators clearly states that there is currently no API to add custom operators. It's in fact very possible, by adding methods named "_<operator>ForKeyPath:" to NSArray (or NSSet). There are many scenarii where this feature would benefit greatly. I wish Apple would provide a real API for this. (Note : I wrote about it recently, on http://bou.io/KVCCustomOperators.html)
