This is true of some other languages as well, but I'm not sure if it is
a feature. When writing C I find that it is often very convenient to
have access to the loop index. Sometimes testing it is an easy way to
detect an unusual loop exit that requires special handling, and sometimes
I want to process part of an array in the first loop, exit at a point
that may be data dependent, then resume processing in a second loop
that needs to know where to start. (And often a for loop is more convenient
than a while loop.)
