To do it with case, you'd need to wrap case in a macro that expanded to
`(case ~thingy ~(eval case1) ...) or something along those lines, with the
evals snapping lookups like FetcherEvent/EVENT_TYPE_FEED_POLLED to the
associated constants. This will have the effect of classloading the class
with the constants at macroexpansion time, but that's likely happening
anyway if you're importing that class.
