There’s a very common pattern in switches of deferring to another case that I’ve always found very awkward to write in C, and while sometimes there’s no choice but to extract a helper function, there’s a still-fairly-structural code pattern here that I think we can sensibly support.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">On the other hand, there’s an argument that this is an inappropriate extension for “fallthrough” specifically, which is one reason we’ve never pursued it.</div></div></div></blockquote><div class=""><br class=""></div>Oh, I see that Joe already brought this up, spelled “reswitch”.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">John.</div><div class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div class="" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">John.</div><div class=""><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class=""><div class="" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">One defense comes to mind: there is talk of Swift aiming at systems programming.
