I don't think it's particularly common that you will want a loop where you don't use an element of the range you're iterating over and you don't want to use the index; and that not only is a for loop the best tool for the job but also none of the alternatives which have been presented to you are a viable option.

And even in that case, I'm not sure the terseness of for(some_value) is a benefit over a loop which is more specific about what it's doing and why.
