Right - not that I want to rewrite the code; however, I think the
purpose of using a switch is to catch all the options, especially with
the typecasting of the switch... While perhaps an if ... else if ...
would be more suitable for the exceptions such as this.

Maybe someone else has a strong enough opinion to warrant a fully
populated switch.

What you have works, but may not fit everyone's style/taste.

I'm OK with it though
