Last year I learned by experience that flow designer for-each loops that perform a record update in the loop simply stopped when that update is aborted by a before-update business rule that prevents the update.  I put in an idea to fix this on the idea hub, which I thought would be completely non-controversial. 

I went in and confirmed that using an Action with "Update Multiple" now has several features that were missing previously.  There are 2 new checkboxes which were not present in Paris.

 

1. Run Business Rules and Workflow   This actually solves my original problem.  It is the FD equivalent of "gs.setWorkflow(false)".

2. Don't fail on error.   This is  the feature that I requested.  It actually was implemented.   Thanks @Brad Tilton  for the help on this journey.

 

It seems that the person responding and closing my idea was simply not well-informed.
