Well, even if this may not apply for this particular case (if you exit the loop immediatelly after release()) it is still good practice to avoid the mistake. Since you can not remove members from collection while looping through collection using FOR EACH loop, it's better to learn this once and don't use potentially unsafe code.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
