in thread and multiple statements

I agree, 2¢ in the kitty. This is the style I prefer and gravitate toward. I tend to use names too so I think it would even read well to those who don't like this style. 

NUM:
  for( 1..10) {  
      $_ & 1 and warn "odd" and next NUM; 
      print "$_ is good and even\n";
  }

    I only use names in nested loops where I need to break out of nested levels. And I think I've had that arise maybe twice in 8 years.

    Generally, these kind of short circuit guards tend to be at (or very close to) the top of the loop body they short-circuit, which (IMO) renders the labels redundant.
