(Originally reported by Dana F.)

Should we allow multiple update expressions to share a common prolog and to be
executed sequentially? The syntax would look like P E; E; E

As a generalization of the above, should we allow any update expression to
consist of multiple updates separated by a sequencing semicolon operator? The
syntax would look like do U1; U2; U3
