In some situations we don't want a total empty list. I opted for a
dedicated function instead of integrating it as error in the
`split_list` function. It is used in many places and the potential
fallout from unintended behavior changes is too big.

This can be very confusing IMHO. Intuitively, I'd expect the expression
check_list_empty($list) to be truthy if $list is empty. I'd rather call
it list_not_empty. But looking at the caller you introduce later, it
might be better to avoid the double negative, flip the truth table and
call it list_is_empty.


thanks! sounds like a good idea. I will wait a bit before sending a v5.
