Conditional terminal for individual frames of sequence structures

Status: Declined
State Machines are a lot more robust architectures than this functionality in a Flat Sequence Structure.

A conditional terminal for each frame of a sequence structure would allow one to exit the sequnce at any frame.  This could be useful in case something occured in one frame that meant the remaining frames should not be executed.  Easier than having to use case statements in the later frames.

I don't think such a thing is needed.  If you've spent any length of time in the forums, you know sequence structures are frowned upon in most cases and should be replaced with a state machine that would allow you to exit the structure at any given iteration of the state machine loop.

Sounds like you're after a state machine...
