Those were all proposed for Ada 9X.  They were rejected,
IIRC, because they're mere "nice to haves", and the mood
was generally "simplify by removing features".  (Since the
above make the language more uniform, adding them arguably
simplifies.)

I don't think anyone ever suggested:

    X := X + 1 when X < Integer'Last;

;-)
