I was about to suggest something similar. I'm actually trying to avoid
using for(;;) altogether which may seem odd to some but I just don't like
parsing a for statement, it's rarely clear and usually ugly to my eyes. I
still often forget to increment the counter, but that error produces
a very obvious symptom. When I don't forget I place the increment on a
line by itself, the last of the block, for clarity.

Those who are slower at parsing information must
necessarily be faster at problem-solving.
