    How can you express control in a clearer way then without goto.
    I'm realy curious, maybe you can give an example.

    Again, I can't see how the designers intentions would be
    better clarified my means of using goto. In my little corner
    of the programming universe, the developers intentions are
    made visible by means of inline documentation... lot's of it 

    And again, an example would be appreciated.
