I like the general idea, but rather than explicitly focusing on the 'or'
keyword, how about just giving all loop constructs (do/while/for/foreach) a
return value? I'd suggest an integer return value indicating the number of
times the loop executed.
This accomodates your use case since foreach(...) {} or { defaultblock } still
works, while also allowing for others:
e.g.:
$ranTwice = foreach(...) {} == 2;
It does introduce a temp var, but OpCache+ can trivially optimize that out when
it isn't used.
