I like the "named loops" concept of other HLL like Ada 95 or Java better
than either goto or exceptions. It allows you to use "break" and
"continue" for other than the innermost loops, too:
break; => break out of inner loop
break loop_name; => break out of named loop "loop_name"
OTOH it's not used *that* often, so I won't argue for including it in
Python ;)
