  There is already one in Tools/scripts/pident.py that does something
similar.
Alternatively you could do something like:
endFor=0 ; endfor=0 ; end=0 ; end_for=0

And write code such as follows to your heart content:

for i in range(0,100):
	xxxx
endfor

- or

for i in range(0,100):
	xxxx
endFor

- or

for i in range(0,100):
	xxxx
end_for

- or

for i in range(0,100):
	xxxx
end

-
same applies with endwhile, enddef, endclass, endtry, ...
