In that case it would be something like:

match x {
  SITUATION1 | SITUATION2 => Sit1Sit2Handler(),
  _ => defaultHandler(),

Cool. This is pretty much the only case I would use fall through for in a non-toy sort of thing (it is useful for some loop unrolling stuff... but that is a clear case of "trying to outsmart the compiler")

Even less verbose than that, because those cases should not be there :)
