The `slice` filter is extremely unintuitive. In most programming languages, the slice method "Returns a one-level deep copy of a portion of an array." [link](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/slice)

It is my belief that either the slice filter should be changed to match that of the typical language, or it should be renamed to something like `group` or `unzip` (opposite of underscore's [zip](http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore/#zip))
