For clarity, we have renamed the January 2019 version from:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/switch-expressions-old.html
to:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/switch-expressions-2019-01.html
The CSR for switch expressions (JDK-8207241) has the spec as an
attachment, but also links to an online version for reader convenience.
Originally it linked to `switch-expressions.html`, but that is a living
document and hence unsuitable for a CSR, so now it links to
`switch-expressions-2019-01.html`.

This is functionally equivalent to the spec uploaded last month. The change is
in how we specify the type checking of switch expressions. We have make
simplifications to make it more consistent with the specification of
conditional expressions. The behaviour of type checking is unchanged.
Thanks,

PS: I have left the January version at
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/switch-expressions-old.html for reference.

This contains all the changes you suggested below. In addition, there is a
small bug fix in 5.6.3 concerning widening
(https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8213180). I have also taken the
opportunity to reorder chapter 15 slightly, so switch expressions are now
section 15.28 and constant expressions are now section 15.29 (the last section
in the chapter).
Comments welcome!
