Ok, everyone seems ok with procedure, but how much do we actually dislike block? (I think this one is an "ain't broke, don't fix") case, and personally I find procedure buth clunky and more limiting than block (just as factory is more limiting than supplier.).

(Respond only if you hate block.)

"Hate" is too strong, but I had no idea what Block was when I first noticed it in the discussion. (I though at first maybe it had something to do with blocking as in concurrency.)

I would recognize Procedure instantly.
