MAKELIST with a condition?

MAKELIST(X,X,-pi,pi,p1/6);

Is there a syntax to embed something like "IF X > 0 THEN X" as a valid EXPRESSION within the MAKELIST structure? The intent is to include the conditional expression WITHIN the MAKELIST command, not pre or post processing.

IF not, would this notion be worthy of future development for MAKELIST?

I am sure you had something more complicated in mind. But in your specific example, would it not make more sense to restrict the range of from 0 to PI rather than from -PI to PI?

MAKELIST(X,X,(-PI MOD (PI/6)),PI,PI/6);
