It looks superficially like Ruby blocks.  But Ruby's syntax is
more nicely sugared, and more importantly, Ruby's other
language features are designed to work smoothly with blocks.
"break" and "return" do the right thing inside Ruby blocks.
Ruby has a different flavor of "yield" that complements blocks.
And so on.  None of this support is there in ES4.
