Perhaps, but that's going to annoy the vast majority of people that use ${FILE} to mean something other than the file(1) application. I tend towards the view that there's so much prior art, and that saying: =2Efor FILE in ${LIST_OF_FILES} =2E.. =2Eendfor is so natural a construct that trying to make people do it differently would be wildly unpopular.
