OK, forget I said anything about exceptions.  The language in Nick's patch is fine.

Regarding "break is bad", while I agree with Terry's recommendation, I think saying anything about this would be overreaching the scope of a style guide.  We shouldn't give style lawyers more ammo to start holy wars.

I'm not sure I follow Nick's reference to "deterministic resource management to better cope with unexpected exceptions" -- is that an argument from the Go crowd? (Yawn.)
