7 years agoAs tool support for this sort of thing tends to be based on user demand, I'd just like to chime in and say that I'd definitely like to see case inside as a feature supported for synthesis in the future.

Besides "it hasn't been done yet", is there any technical reason why case inside hasn't been implemented yet?
