You will still rapidly run into limitations with TA.
The canvas effectively limits the number of tiles you can have in your program, scroll bars would help if they didn't overly complicate things
Execution speed seems to become a problem at about the point where you fill up the canvas, both regarding moving a stack of blocks and running your program. I ran into all three limitations doing a lunar lander at http://tonyforster.blogspot.com/2009/02/turtle-lander.html and for that reason haven't implemented crash detection (vspeed, hspeed or terrain flatness)

Can't you use
forever
If <condition>
stop stack
to get the same as while?
