No such policy. Well, just an orthogonal one that marks code as reachable if it has a label.
My counter-question to you is, what's so bad about goto? Food scientists trying to come up with gluten-free spaghetti have no idea computer science had it covered decades ago. Plus it's great for extra artistic renditions of Queen songs that remind me of how much my programming style has changed since Freddie was filling stadiums:
pts/2 ryan@pi:~/src/shorts $> cat goto.pl
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use 5.010;
use strict;
say 'Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me';
# say 'Galileo' for 1..5 has nothing on this:
my $galileos = 5;
galileo: say "Galileo";
goto galileo if --$galileos;
figaro: say 'Figaro magnifico';
pts/2 ryan@pi:~/src/shorts $> perlcritic goto.pl
goto.pl source OK

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
