Re: get_local() and "(for index/limit/stop)"

Does this also mean, that I can reassign 's' as in the code below:

	for s in string.gfind(..something..) do
		--
		if ..sometest.. then
			s= "override"
		end
		print(s)
	end

Currently, this is a 'no-no' and the consequences are sometimes hard to 
see (most likely, the loop just quits?)
