I have to agree that's actually a more intuitive use of "else" in relation to a for-loop. It's a pity that some other word wasn't chosen that would have left "else" free for this purpose. Could something perhaps be done about this in Py3k? Blatantly changing the meaning of "else" here might be going too far, but maybe some other construct could be found that expresses the same intent.
