Daniel Dekany commented on FREEMARKER-37:
-----------------------------------------
The problem is deeper than that, because {{#list}} isn't just an odd name for
{{for}}. {{#list}} deals with things like item separators, item index, etc.
Thus if you skip items like that (with a big {{#if}} or a {{#continue}]), you
can't use those features. So the real solution would be list filtering... which
is a more difficult problem than {{#continue}}. So, yeah, skipping is badly
needed, but {{#continue}} is not the good solution for it.

> Sorely missing ability to skip through an iteration of a list and continue on
> with the rest of the list. would like to write clean code like this:
> <#list collection as element>
> <#if element.attr1 == "some_value">
> <#continue /> <#-- skip over this item and run next item in
> loop -->
> </#if>
> do stuff here
> </#list>
> Thanks!
