1) Mention here that the default behavior is relaxed continuity. Same for
Scala. Also the default behavior, I would also put it in the docs for
`oneToMore`, `zeroToMore`, and `times` and have a forward reference to
`consecutive`.
2) At the end where you have the example, you could also mention that in
the case of the default, we would have ...
3) And also now it is an `SimpleCondition`, not a `FilterFunction` ;)
> Implement internal continuity for looping states.

> We should be able to specify an internal continuity for a looping state. The
> API could look like: {{zeroOrMore().consecutive()}}. So that we have a
> continuity up to the first element of a loop and between elements in the loop.
