I'd be OK with callable support in where() and other methods, as long as we have a clear policy about what methods should/will support it.

The docs https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#truth-value-testing state that the builtin bool returns True for all objects unless bool is defined or len returns 0 (function objects don't define either so they use the fallback). I'm not sure why, but I suspect it is the way it is to make

if obj: ...

equivalent to

if obj is not None: ...

That said I really like the callable support of pandas (e.g. Series.where), so maybe we should add that too?
