Tom, I disagree. Returning from inside an if(-else)/for/(do-)while/try(- catch)/using-statement is done throughout others' and my code. If you were to say that's bad style then I'd ask you to burn your structural programming guidelines, that's just so the eighties. ;) (I realize that if-else, while, etc. will stay the remain the same no matter which flavor of closures gets into Java, but new control abstractions such as using will be affected.)
