I often find myself wanting to write this:

actually care about the loop counter, but this doesn't compile.
You can do this:
   for(;;) {}

If 'for' lets you omit any of the loop terms, surely it makes sense
that foreach would allow you to omit the first term as well?
I see no need to declare a superfluous loop counter when it is unused.


I can't imagine this has ever been a significant issue for anyone. But 
that said, I certainly can't disagree with it, and wouldn't object to it.
