Oh, I don't think that it's a big issue. We have "goto case XXX" and "goto case," so we could use them to enforce flow control statements at the end of case blocks without changing anything other than what the compiler complains about. I definitely think that "continue switch" is less error prone than "goto case," and I'd prefer "continue switch," but "goto case XXX" is indeed rare enough that the frequency of screwing up and using "goto case" instead of "goto case XXX" would be quite small. So, I definitely find "continue switch" to be preferable, but it's not a big deal. - Jonathan M Davis
