Cannot use expressions as iterables in loop #631
Description
in python you can use
for self.attr in list
this translates to for (var self.attr of list) which gives syntax error.
Need to generate temporary variable for iteration and assign it to attribute inside loop on first line:
for (var temp_iter of list) {
self.attr = temp_iter
...
in case where iterable is just an identifier, we can skip this extra assignment.

Another way could be to not write
varwhen an object attribute accessor is used (or whatever Object.attribute is called).for SomeObject.attr in listwould translate tofor (SomeObject.attr of list).Don't know which one is easier to implement.
