[colorforth] an observation


I've noticed the number of returns far outweigh the ocurance of fall
through. Notationally, it would be more efficient to make return implicit
and fall through explicit. In this case red words would denote the ending
and begining of definitions, also 'then' would compile a return and the
null token would as well.

Is this a good idea or a trivial variation? I think it would reduce errors
as the semicolon is mostly a syntactic entity rather than a semantic one.
