One big thing I'd love would be for us to stop requiring a 
`break` at the end of each `case`; instead a case should default 
to breaking at the end, which is what you want 99% of the time. 
We already require an explicit `goto case` for fall-through, and 
give an error otherwise, so this won't break existing code.
Switch-case statements with short cases are so much nicer to read 
without all the redundant `break`s everywhere:

```d
int x = 1;
switch(x){
	case 0:
		writeln("hi");
	case 1:
		writeln("bye");
	default:
		writeln("invalid code!");
}
```
