Sometimes the IfViewHelper syntax is quite verbose if you only want to do something on "else":

<f:if condition="...">
    <f:else>...</f:else>
</f:if>

As an alternative we discussed a new "UnlessViewHelper" in IRC to shorten this:

<f:unless condition="...">...</f:unless>

The only difference to the IfViewHelper is the negation of the condition.

This helps for example shortening the syntax for a ForLoop with condition for no objects from:

<f:if condition="{objects}">
    <f:then>
        <f:for each="{objects}" as="object">
            ...
        </f:for>
    </f:then>
    <f:else>No objects found</f:else>
</f:if>

to:

<f:for each="{objects}" as="object">
    ...
</f:for>
<f:unless condition="{objects}">No objects found</f:unless>
