Looks to me the prohibition was to prevent a crash. It makes more sense to fix it.<br>

<br>
The crash can be fixed by just removing the check after finishing issue17611.<br>
<br>
But is there any use case for 'continue'/'break'/'return' inside 'finally' clause? The code like<br>
<br>
  try:<br>
    return 1<br>
  finally:<br>
    return 2<br>
<br>
or<br>
<br>
  try:<br>
    continue<br>
  finally:<br>
    break<br>
<br>
looks at least confusing. Currently 'break' and 'return' are never used inside 'finally' clause in the stdlib. I would want to see a third-party code that uses them.<br>
