'Stop Processing' Action within Repeat Actions

Currently it appears that a Stop Processing action will put a break into the entire recipe. If there is a Stop Processing nested within a Repeat Action for Loop, it would be useful for it to only break the current loop and then proceed onto the loop's next iteration. It would also be useful to have the option for it to exit the Repeat Action loop entirely.

In summation, it would be great to have a drop-down with these options when the Stop Processing action is in a Repeat Action:

Stop Processing for current Repeat Action

Stop Processing for current and additional Repeat Actions

Stop Processing for Recipe

My use case is simple: I need to cycle through a Zendesk ticket comments and when I find one from a particular person I want the repeat action to stop so I can get the date of that first comment from that person. That person may have other comments after that but I'm only interested in the first date. However, the repeat action goes through all comments without stopping so I don't get a chance to keep the first date. It would be nice to have a repeat-until or do-while kind of loop.
