- I don't know anyone who doesn't use 'continue', at least from time to 
time.
- It doesn't break anything, aside from introducing a new key word. 
Existing code will work. The repeat..until issue can be handled during 
file parsing and reported as a bug, naturally.
I can't agree that position of Lua Team is conservative. The features 
already included in Lua 5.2 aren't of conservative kind and are quite 
questionable.

I believe that providing good arguments for your position has much
better potential.
However, I'm starting to speak for the Lua Team. Sorry, I shouldn't.
I believe that Lua Team position on "popular requests" and new
language features was stated many times on this list and elsewhere. It
is very conservative, and that is good.
