I simply don't care about these missing loop constructs.  Python works
great for what I use it for, and apparently works well for many people.
I have yet to find a loop that I couldn't construct with Python's
apparently-limited constructs.  I guess I don't see what having those
extra looping constructs will give me in terms of productivity or even
ease of use.
