That's why I said the "usual" Java cases. Not the uncommon ones :-)
I would agree with default being anywhere but the end, but I frequently use fall-through in cases.
This is not always an option. Often the processing required for the default case coincides with an explicitly enumerated case.
Plus, "default" doesn't mean "afterthought." There's no real reason it should go last. You can make the argument that it belongs first when it's a distinct case (not handled along with another enumerated case).
I guess the right name for it wouldbe "else".
That's the name Ruby uses as well. Though instead of switch/case it's case/when.
case x when 1 foo when 2 bar else baz end
There's no fall-through and else must come at the end. But it isn't a switch in the classic (C/Java) sense, so I think these changed semantics are ok.
