Bad idea.  The earlier drafts of 7185 specified 'otherwise' for
this purpose, but that was dropped at the last moment.  ISO10206
uses 'otherwise'. 

'else' for this operation fouls up many parsing schemes.  In
particular it fouls extended Pascal compatibility, and it just
isn't needed.  You can always guard a case statement.
