Not really, since comprehensions are all about providing expression
forms of the equivalent statements. I'm not saying "else break" would
get approved (I actually don't think that's likely for other reasons),
just that it isn't clearly dead in the water due to the inconsistency
with the statement semantics (which is the core problem with the
"while" suggestion).

Cheers,
Nick.
