I'd like to declare this in the "obviously OK" category for future
changes of a similar nature. But I don't think we can because in the
general case the value from the loop may be used outside the loop.
Makes me wonder if a plugin could help identify the obvious cases where
the value from the loop isn't used outside the loop, thus allowing
someone to quickly convert many of these things with a small effort.
