I got this report from community people in Japan. 

1. Add the following codes into PHP editor.
"|" is cursor position.

switch($value){
    case 1:|
}

2. try to add "case 2:" in next line, so hit return

switch($value){
    case 1:
        |
}

It should be OK.

3. add "case 2:"

switch($value){
    case 1:
        case 2:|
}

At this point, after entering ":", it's better to change the indent of "case 2" and
change to the following codes. The reporter is saying Eclipse will adjust the indent in this case.

switch($value){
    case 1:
    case 2:|
}
