Any thoughts about adding the early-exit semantics?

As for the parens, I was actually in favor of keeping them. "for let" and
"for reduce" seem like different variants of "for", which raises the
question if maybe they should be "for_let" and "for_reduce" instead.

Does this mean that the formatter will drop the parens?

Best,
Stefan
