This is why concrete examples are much easier to discuss, heh. In any case, it's often possible to either (a) redefine the inner loop as some sort of container operation, or (b) redefine the outer operation as a function, and use "return". So it would be helpful to have an example that CAN'T be rewritten in one of those ways, to use as a compelling example.
