Sorry, I thought I'd expressed agreement at some point.  I like the
"else\s+(if|while|for|loop)" construct very much, and I think the
programmers of the world would like it too.  I know a some people have
issues with "where's the if" but it's no worse than "where's the semicolon"
or "where's the filehandle closed".
