There is potentially code after the while loop that needs to run, but I 
could move that code somewhere else. However it still won't work, 
because static foreach requires a label for break. So if I fix the loop 
problem, I will still have a label problem, because I need to label the 
switch and use labeled breaks on that.

This is really an issue with:

a) static foreach-ing case clauses requires a labeled break.
b) static foreach (or foreach on a tuple) unrolls all the code inside, 
including labels
c) labels have to be unique within the function.

I solved it for now by extrapolating the inner code into a local 
template function. But this is definitely an awkward situation for 
static foreach.

I was hoping I could use mixins or something to make new label names, 
but it appears I cannot (without mixing in the entire loop contents).
