this clarify scoping, still while what 'return' should do is more or less clear
cut (non-local return), what break or continue should do is ambiguous:
for lst in lists:
do iterate(lst): (x):
if not x: break # should break 'do' or 'for'
print x
vs
for lst in lists:
do synchronized(lock):
if not x: break # should probably break 'for'
print x
so maybe we need a way to differentiate also this, so two different keyword
