I think not many people use it because it's difficult to use.
Having real labels might change that.

see any problem with introducing labels, I just see it as a more
user-friendly way of allowing nested breaks.
Am I very wrong?

It's just something which to begin with isn't used that much.
Grep'ed phpweb/ for it and found 0 occurrences of break n; and I believe
the people developing it would be the ones
of allowing nested breaks.
Am I very wrong?

I think that in 1997 when break/continue n where implemented it would
have been a nice idea, but at this stage except for being more
