3) We have 'exit repeat', I'd like to see 'next repeat'. i.e. a control

in Lingo, which was very close to hypertalk in the old days.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

And while it's on my mind ...
We should be able to reference items of a record by index.
Then we could write useful code like ...
	name of item 3 of dataRecord
and
	value of item 3 of dataRecord
(You can already do this with plist files.)
