ENDCASE is already standardized, so there we have little choice. For
NEXT(-)CASE we have the choice, and standardizing the one that
requires to prepend a 0 for the large majority of uses would be
idiotic. I am not wedded to the name, though, so if you prefer the
name NEXTCASE for the word that's now called NEXT-CASE, that would be
fine with me (VFX users might not like the change of the meaning of
NEXTCASE, though). Or if it's just the dash that you dislike, maybe
CONTCASE, AGAINCASE, REPEATCASE, LOOPCASE or somesuch.
