Something that comes to mind from this is that it would be great if the
commiters were to create more jira issues themselves. I'm guessing
there are loads of things they would like to see improved and it would
give newer contributors like myself a clearer direction on what we can
work on that will increase our experience and at the same time help move
the project forward.

David E. Jones commented on OFBIZ-444:
--------------------------------------
I just sent a message to the private ofbiz list about a larger issue related to
this, so I'm adding relevant comments here.
I'm not sure I like this design... I'd rather see a more generic "while" operation that
would be like the "if" operation. A while-compare is okay, but more like the if-compare
and related operations which are limited in use and really mainly exist for legacy reasons. They
have not been removed because even though something better is now available, they aren't really
causing any problems (like the field-to-field, field-to-env, and related operations were, which is
why it became a priority to remove them).
I don't have time to look at this more right now, so I'd appreciate some
feedback on this. My proposal would be to remove this while-compare operation
and add the more general while operation.
add a while-compare operation to minilang
