Description:
------------
Could it be possible to have a new structure instruction to "foreach" ?
I know that it possible to write with existing instructions but it could be usefull to have this one. It could easily replace some code block like "if(){try{foreach{}catch{}}}else{}" and provide more efficient and "bug disable" code...

See the code, it's only a purpose.




Reproduce code:
---------------
$ar = array(0=>"one", 1=>"two");
foreach($ar as $ix $v) {
catch begin {
   print "<table>";
   print "<caption>My array have ".count($ar)." elements</caption>";
   print "<tr><th>MyH1</th><th>...</th></tr>";
   }
catch end {
   print "</table>";
   }
catch each {
   print "<tr><th>$ix</th><th>$v</th></tr>";
   }
catch null {
   print "oups! my array is empty";
   }
catch exception $ex {
   print "oups! my code is so ugly that it done an error exception.";
   }
}

Expected result:
----------------
<table>
<caption>My array have 2 elements</caption>
<tr><th>MyH1</th><th>...</th></tr>
<tr><th>0</th><th>one</th></tr>
<tr><th>1</th><th>two</th></tr>
</table>

Actual result:
--------------
oups! this instruction do not exists.
