This may sound like a screwed up idea, and I'm not even sure if I would
support it, but just something that went through my mind:
A 2nd (flag) parameter for switch could do miracles:
switch ($var, SWITCH_STRICT)
{
}
and could be used for more than just strict checks:
switch ($var, SWITCH_STRICT | SWITCH_REGEXP)
{
case '/^[0-9]+$/': echo 'a number'; break;
}
or perhaps with byte-flags like with fopen():
switch ($var, 'r')
{
case '/^[0-9]+$/': echo 'a number'; break;
}
Just an idea, and perhaps gross, but very practical if you ask me.

It's definitely a gotcha, especially if you use switch(){}, as there
is no way to do strict type checking there.
