          Issue ID: 13326
           Summary: Specification of CaseStatement doesn't fit empty case
                    body
           Product: D
           Version: D2

Lets parse next D code:

 switch(n) {
 case 1:
 case 2:
   return true;
 }

This is a valid D language construction. But documentation says that statement
"case 1:" must be followed by any statement except other "case" or "default".
As documentation says (http://dlang.org/statement#CaseStatement)
"case ArgumentList :" is followed by "ScopeStatementList"
(http://dlang.org/statement#ScopeStatementList) which is a list of any
statements except CaseStatement or CaseRangeStatement or DefaultStatement. This
rule conflicts with actual D language compiler.
