Huh, this made me wonder if "match/try" may fit people's brains better than
"match/case". I know for me that I want to read case clauses the same way I
would read them in C, which is thoroughly unhelpful.
The following looks weird though, so I don't think I actually like it in
practice:
===
match shape:
try Point(x, y):
...
try Rectangle(x0, y0, x1, y1, painted=True):
...
===
Cheers,
Nick.
