Jan has updated the prototype to make the switch expression a bubble
penatrable only by exceptions. Please take a look!

Hi all,
as far as i remember, the current idea to differentiate between a break label
and a break value is to let the compiler figure this out,
i wonder if it's not simpler to disallow break label (and continue label)
inside an expression switch.
After all, an expression switch do not exist yet, so no backward compatibility
issue, it may make some refactoring impossible but had the great advantage to
do not allow a lot of puzzler codes like the one below.
enum Result {
ONE, MANY
}
Result result(String[] args) {
ONE: for(String s: args) {
return switch(s) {
case "several":
case "many":
break MANY;
case "one":
break ONE;
default:
continue;
};
}
throw ...;
}
