For what it's worth, the ParaSail parallel programming language (https://github.com/parasail-lang/parasail) supports this:

    func Search(Root : Tree; Desired_Value : Tree_Value)
      -> optional Tree_Id is   
        var Identifier : optional Tree_Id := null;
 
        for T => Root then Left(T) || Right(T)
          while T not null concurrent loop
 
           if Value(T) == Desired_Value then
              // Found desired node,
              // exit with its identifier
              exit loop with Identifier => Key(T);
           end if;
 
        end loop;
 
        return Identifier;
    end func Search;
I actually don't use this feature much, because usually there is a key of some sort that determines which side of the tree is of interest.

For what it is worth, Ada was not "designed by committee" more than most languages. It was designed by a design team, and in each revision, there was a strong technical leader of the design team, with the whole design team sharing a strong design aesthetic. I doubt you could say even that about many mainstream languages these days.
