Is there ANY chance we can fix the bitwise operator precedence rules?

I think "fallthrough" would be a perfect keyword to add here. C 
programmers will immediately recognize it. Switch/case are already 
specialized keywords, and fallthrough can complete the set. It's 
unlikely to conflict with existing source, and this is one case where 
having a conspicuously long keyword is a good thing.

Finally, goto is ugly and continue is strongly associated with looping.
