Just another -1. While I appreciated it in Ruby, I don't think it belongs in
the Swift standard library at this time. If closures could be annotated as
break/continue-able, and if the standard library started grew a lot—as Ruby's
did—then maybe (I'd prefer the former and hold off on the latter, though).
In the meantime, "repeat 5 { /* do something */ }" seems better to me.
