Nathan Bubna commented on VELOCITY-699:
---------------------------------------
-1 let's keep VTL simple and quick to learn and not turn it into java. no
return statements.
if you really, really feel like it would be useful, i suppose i wouldn't veto
enhancing #break to work like this, but even that i won't really like. do not
add a directive called #return. macros are not java methods.
> Add a #return directive for returning from a macro
