FUD.

Let's be clear. Where exactly "continue" does not working? In "try-except":

>>> for a in xrange(5):
...     try:
...             print 'continue'
...             continue
...             print 'break'
...             break
...     except:
...             print 'except'
...             break
... 
continue
continue
continue
continue
continue

...or in "try-finally":

>>> for a in xrange(5):
...     try:
...             print 'continue'
...             continue
...             print 'break'
...             break
...     finally:
...             print 'finally'
...             break
... 
continue
finally


?
