Probably been mentioned before but I fail to see why Perl changed the
'break' keyword to 'last', in loops. Bear with me on this - it seems
semantically more accurate to say 'break' - you're immediately breaking out
of the loop. 'last' makes it sound like the current loop will be the last,
but not that the execution should be stopped immediately, whereas break
makes it sound like the latter.
Where can I propose that this be changed, or break aliased to last, for Perl
6?
