I don't think it would be very easy, if at all possible, to convert a 
#for loop to a #while loop. It would probably be best to implement a 
completely separate loop. However, I don't know that part of the 
source(yet), so I could easily be wrong.

Do what? Type #local?
BTW, those shortcuts won't make it into 3.5, since they don't work quite 
right, so maybe % *can* eventually be used as a modulus operator.
