[PHP-DEV] alternative syntax for do...while

[Marc Richards]

I guess this is too late for 5.0, and I feel like there is bound to be 
opposition, but this has been bugging me for a while, so I figured I 
would ask.

I use the alternative syntax for control structures almost exclusively 
within my HTML code but I have to revert to braces for do...while. Why 
can't we do this?

<? do: ?>
<tr>
   <td><?= $s_array['name'] ?></td>
   <td><?= $s_array['classyear'] ?></td>
   <td><?= $s_array['status'] ?></td>
</tr>
<? while ($s_array = mysql_fetch_array($search_results): ?>
<? enddowhile ?>
It is a little cumbersome, but at least I can keep my syntax consistent. 
 Are there parser related problems?
