return() does not perform an implicit break. The return() statement exists all the non-function blocks within the current function AND the function block itself. AFAIK issuing a break statement inside a function when there are no blocks from which to break will give a fatal error. So you can never use break to exit a function, rather you must use an explicit return() for this.
