I probably wouldn't use the functionality much at all, no matter what 
syntax it's wrapped up in.

Here's something you might like to read.

As Guido puts it, aside from those few examples I gave above, there's 
really not that much use for that functionality.  And when it is needed 
for something other than those things it's often more readable to just 
write out the foreach.
