The PEP is deferred because it seems that
while True:
<code>
if condition:
break
is good enough. I agree. We should reject the PEP and summarise
the status. Alternatively, the only way I think we can improve on
the syntax above is something like this:
do:
<code>
if condition:
break
or without a new keyword:
while:
<code>
if condition:
break
The empty-predicate variant would let Python check whether there's
actually a break in the body of the loop.
