That particular switch statement is in a function that's deprecated and
scheduled to be completely removed in about six months, so I don't see much
point in worrying about it unless it's causing serious problems, and while
that symbol name is stupidly long, AFAIK, it's not really causing any
problems.

I never would have thought that a switch statement would even have a symbol
associated with it though. Clearly, I have no clue about how they're
implemented.
