We can now do this (in V4.0) ...

   while cond1 label "toplevel" do
      . . .
      while cond2 do
       . . .
         while cond3 label "anotherpoint" do
           . . .
            while cond4 do
              . . .
              if abc then
                  exit "toplevel"
              else
                  continue "anotherpoint"
              end if
            end while
        end while
     end while
   end while
