'Step', 'low', 'high' border nodes on for-loop

Would it be possible to introduce some or all of the following features?

 

  1. a 'step' border node on for-loops, associated with [i], to specify the step value so that [i] can be incremented (or decremented(?), which would necessitate an initializer for [i]) by the required amount
  2. one might also want the step value to vary, as a function of something, of [i] perhaps
  3. a pair of 'low' and 'high' border nodes, to specify an interval instead of specifying N

Feel free to dream up as good a UI as you want for this :).

Here's a mock-up of the UI that I had in mind...
