The good thing of "else" is that you don't need a new keyword. But it's not intuitive. A better keyword may make the code much more readable. For example:
foreach (key, f; fooAA)
if (f.someFlag && key in barAA && f.someVal > barAA[key].someVal)
break;
unbroken
writefln("Missing!");
It looks a little silly, but I think it's easy to understand the meaning :-)
Bye,
