Point taken.  So long as it is some sort of RuntimeException, it is 
good enough.

Maybe we can code up some utility method like so:

TaskContainerUtils.executeTaskList(TaskList, boolean isSequential)

If your code uses this method instead of iterating through
tasks and executing by itself, then we can achieve the break
functionality without your container task having to bother about 
catching BreakExceptions.

Anyway, all these are implementation details and I'd be happy
to discuss them all if <break> is accepted as a need on a 
theoretical basis.
