Unfortunately, the trick from the docs (chapter 4.2.12) using "case

syntax error).
I think if you use parentheses you can avoid the syntax error:
Ah, I didn't know that parentheses are allowed here. (And I must admit I
didn't try.)
Nonetheless, I think it would improve readability to have an extra
operator for this.
