Maybe I'm wrong, but, I never saw where using this statement in
phobos source codes, what problem using this statement?
I'm not aware of any problems with it, but there's also rarely any
reason to
use it. In most cases, it doesn't really add anything to the code, and
I'd
argue that it would make code harder to read, because it hides where the
variables are coming from. I don't think that we'd really lose anything
if we
didn't have it, but it's there if you want to use it, and it's not
going away.

switch(foobar) with(FoobarEnum) {
// ...
}
That is golden !
This is gold plated.
Assuming typeof(foobar) == FoobarEnum, any place FoobarEnum is expected,
you should not have to specify FoobarEnum.
The above should not be necessary.
