In Lua, we favor generic and powerful constructs. Actually, a 'goto'
would be almost perfect.
Can we have computed go to?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goto#Computed_GOTO
(I am joking, but it would actually fit quite well with the current proposal.
break (n) :label1: :label2:
anyone?)
Or if we can't have that, how about "COMEFROM" (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COMEFROM
)?
