who's never had to do this:

---
if (comparison)
{
     statement;
     break;
}
---

ans then thought it's a pity to open/closes the braces just for a
simple statement. Would it be possible to have a template to
simplify this to:

---
if (comparison)
     Break!(expression);
---

or even at the language level:

---
if (comparison)
     break(expression);
if (comparison)
     continue(expression);
---

so far it looks like it's only possible using a string mixin,
which is a quite unelegant solution (because for example you loose the IDE completion while writting the statement):

---
auto Break(string statement)
{
    return format("{%s;break;}", statement);
}
// unelegant but works...
if (condition)
     mixin("myVar = 8".Break);

if (condition)
     mixin(q{myVar = 8}.Break);
---

Any other solution ?
