I've stumbled across the Switch module and thinks it's pretty cool (and more importantly useful!). Are there lots of folks using it out there?

Just Curious.

Well, the concept is extremely nice, (and Perl 6 has a switch statement), but the implementation, based on a source filter, is thus flawed by definition. As noted in the docs, there are undoubtedly serious bugs lurking somewhere in code this funky.

Cool to play with, but don’t use in production. People have been bitten by it.
