I agree.  I think || is just confusing.
I thought about $blockname <= { ... }, but <= is obviously taken, as is <==
So here's some random ideas that probably make no sense ($ can be  
optional.. don't know)

        $blockname <=: for 1..5 {
                ...
        }
    $blockname :=> for 1..5 {
                ...
        }
    for 1..5 {
                ...
        } $blockname;
    for 1..5 {
                ...
        } <=: $blockname;
    $blockname for 1..5 {
                ...
        } $blockname;
    $blockname -- for 1..5 {
                ...
        }
    for 1..5 {
                ...
        } -- $blockname;
    $blockname @ for 1..5 { # Yeah I know @ is probably impossible
                ...
        } $blockname;
    for 1..5 {
                ...
        } @ $blockname;
    $blockname â for 1..5 {
                ...
        }
