I think this is probably intended behaviour. In Java switch is a computed goto, whereas in Groovy switch is a cascading if -- i.e. in Java there is a single value computation and then goto, whereas in Groovy the case labels are computed one after the other until a true occurs. This means default has to be the last case label in Groovy.

Ruby has the same sort of switch/case behavior, but in Ruby 1.9 it's optimized to turn switches with all literal case values into a simple goto. Perhaps the same optimization would work for Groovy?

We'll be incorporating it post JRuby 1.1.
