A beating attempt, first draught:

    (pcase-dolist (PATTERN LIST) BODY...)

    Loop over a list.

    Evaluate BODY with bindings made by matching PATTERN to each
    element of LIST in turn.  PATTERN is a pcase pattern, the
    matching being done as described in `pcase'.  The return value is
    not significant.

    Should the matching fail for any LIST element, the results are
    undefined.

    See also `dolist'
