What I really want to do is write a summary, get some consensus and redraft 
the RFC. I'll do this in the next few days.

As far as I can see the current consensus is as follows:
     1. Implicit variable: nice but not really worth the trouble.
     2. Explicit variable between foreach and the array: might conflict
        with other proposals.
     3. Explicit counter in the body of the for/each loop: a clean
        solution but requires a new or reused function.

If you really wish to split part of this out into a separate RFC it would 
be best to wait until this one is more finalised.
