OK - I see what you are saying.

However .....

The logic within the ACL is different and more complex. Words like DENY mrely
mean to return false to the calling ACL etc.

I still think that the GOTO is more elegant and easier to understand and that
ease of use is important in designing software. Sendmail for example can to
almost everything Exim can do if you dedicate your life to understanding its
cryptic config files. The power of software is tied to ease of use and I think
GOTO is easier.

Besides, how hard could it be to add this?
