However, some sub-disciplines like to number each case (for example, if you 
want to refer to one of them in the future).

In the old implementation, this was tricky (the equation without the equation 
number should be centered, and the equation number should be flush right). But 
I think that this should be possible with the new low-level box alignment 
macros.
