I have difficulty visualizing the code you intend here.
Do you mean something like,

   loop
      if Condition then
         goto Almost_Done;
      end if;
      -- ... many lines of loop body ...
    <<Almost_Done>>
      Do_Something;
   end loop;

?

At any rate, having heard Robert Dewar's FOSDEM talk ("every new feature damages the language") I will easily renounce my wish...
