A for loop[1] is basically syntax sugar for a while loop. In general,
where foo, bar, baz, and quux are expressions, the following are equivalent:
for (foo; bar; baz) { quux }
foo; while (bar) { quux; baz }
If Perl6 has enough syntax-sugar ability to let you turn the former
into the latter, then you don't need to worry about for's signature.
[1] Of course I mean a C-style for loop.
