GCC sets different alignment/maxbytes for Loops vs Jumptable (vs Functions). You could imagine having different alignments/maxbytes for outer loops vs inner loops, or based on some other characteristics of the loop.

You could imagine it, but unless someone implements something using this, it's bitrotting, incomplete infrastructure.
