I wanted to catch throw (without catch), return (out of function) and break
(out of a loop).
I left to the user what to do with them.
If you think they must be errors in the Default function, the isr? func should
return true:
if none? res [return true]
instead of
if none? res [prin "control detected " return false]

If one wants the throw/break/return error! object in the isr? function, he
must re-create it :-(
But attention, the no-loop error is a special error. If this is standard:
error? do does [return make error! [throw no-function]] ;== true
this is not:
>> error? do does [return make error! [throw no-loop]]
** Throw Error: Nothing to break
** Near: return make error! [throw no-loop]
The break error! is third class! :-)
