Switch vs If

[jeremyp]

I'd rather see a continue; that indicates you do want to execute the next section, rather than a break; which means you don't.

Although continue is used in a lot of languages for loop control, so it probably needs to be a different word. But it's early and I can't think of one.

The semantics of the continue keyword in C are about as evil as it's possible to be. If you want to change it so that it only means "drop through this switch case" it gets my vote.

What's the problem with continue, Jeremy?
