For in-core code that is supposed to handle all cases I find it much better to get a compiler warning than to error out in a default: case. The latter is very likely not going to be exercised by any test and thus not be noticed for prolonged time. Might make sense to test for -Werror=switch and add that to the compiler flags by default.
