The main argument against providing the 'goto' statement seems to be to
protect users from themselves.
So, let's analyze the situation. In the languages which provide the
'goto' statement, is this functionality widely abused?
I have used a number of Open Source projects in several different
languages and can attest to rarely even *seeing* a 'goto' statement.
Based on this I personally don't believe it will be so abused, but
perhaps I haven't seen enough code..
