In Javascript, a syntax error in a switch statement brings down ID CS:

switch( x )
  {
  case 1 , 2 : return this;
  case 3 , 4 : return that;
  }

I was hoping that this construction would work (case 1 or 2, case 2 or 3) as it does in Pascal and C, but it crashes ID. Using semicolons (case 1 ; 2) doesn't crash ID, but it has no effect at all. Just to warn you.
