In principle I like this #:ec idea, but I would feel more comfortable if you
explored the whole range of for loops and their interactions with this new
feature. -- Matthias

I think this is a good idea, and something that I've wanted for a long
time. But there are ways to make it much better, and generalize to all
loops.
First, recognize that a `for/...` loop is really a recursive function,
which is passing along a bunch of arguments. In this setting,
`continue` means

This is off topic in a sense but right on topic wrt the
If adding break&continue features to your fancy iteration syntax, I
propose that any uses of these features in source code be somehow very
prominent.
For example, perhaps there is a keyword that must be at the top of the
fancy iteration form, something like
"#:enable-continue-here-because-pro
I disagree strongly that this is un-rackety. Consider the following loop:
(define v )
(let loop ([i 100])
(define e (vector-ref v i))
(cond [(zero? i) null]
[(= 999 e) null]
[(even? e) (loop (add1 i))]
[else (cons e (loop add1 i))]))
I don't think that's un-

Yeah, I'm realizing that my understanding of those of the complaints
was wrong. My next step when I get back to this is to try to get a
reasonably automatic setup for Redex that mimics that
\usepackage{pslatex} setting in latex (which is, I think what sigplan
uses).
