I would not favor proposing such a thing.  I don?t recall ever seeing the statement version of FORALL used in practice.  Adding a similar syntax for DO CONCURRENT would add no useful functionality,  and it seems like a stylistic regression.  The task for F2015 was to remove warts, not add them.

Cheers,
