You do realize that this is:

   label:
   while(condition) {
     break label;
   }

As a C programmer this confuses me to no end.  When I see "label:" I 
expect control to end up there and the loop to be executed again.  I 
realize all the Java folks have gotten used to this, but I don't think I 
ever will.
