We decided on the dev list against this because of the very close similarities of switch/selects operations.
Well, that's the point: Similar operation - similar look. I dislike "switch without fallthru" because it is too verbose ("fallthru" is even spelt wrong). And making "select" a keyword really does no harm, IMHO.

Also, EU's target is no longer hobby programmers. EU is a general purpose programming language suitable for a wide variety of tasks. There are commercial applications written in Euphoria and commercial quality apps. Many of us also use Euphoria in our work place for mission critical tasks.
That's another discussion for which I will open another thread soon. It'll be a longer post.
