cf0a0f37bf07eb8e9435febe96e3adfe45004f91 - Added break with value to with syntax
(BTW, still not mentioned in Documentation)

But what about to allow to break from arbitrary block (with, do), and even without value?

Research direction

Start by reviewing commit cf0a0f37bf07eb8e9435febe96e3adfe45004f91 and the existing break support for with syntax. Determine how with and do blocks are represented and what arbitrary-block control flow should mean, including breaks without a value. Done requires a decided behavior and corresponding implementation and documentation.
