This is similar to C's switch/case syntax (copied into many other languages), or syntax provided by Switch::Plain. . This is an initial, experimental implementation. Furthermore, it is built as a non-trivial example use-case on top of XS::Parse::Keyword, which is also experimental. No API or compatibility guarantees are made at this time.
