It allows you to EXIT or CONTINUE a loop that is not the innermost one, by
naming the label of an outer loop.
One can debate endlessly whether it's good or bad to include that
functionality, but it definitely has use cases. I would assume that at this
point, it's not going anywhere.
The relevant documentation is here:
