PEP 315: Enhanced While Loop

[Andrew Koenig]

Alex> OK.  Makes the semantic of an else clause somewhat peculiar (the else

Alex> exist, but not if the loop exists because of the condition on any of
Alex> the FOLLOWING while's) but perhaps that's secondary.

Well, maybe.  I hadn't thought of else clauses.  Indeed, that may be
another reason for my proposed syntax, because I would certainly want
the else to execute if the condition of *ANY* of the while clauses
causes the exit (but not if a break causes it).
