"case" conditional behaves differently

[ethan-sparkdevnetwork]

One of our users came across this and we'd like your input.

In Shopify Liquid a "case" will return multiple expressions if multiple conditions are met. This can happen because a "when" can contain multiple values.

In Fluid the first condition that is true will return the expression and then exit the case in the same manner that a SQL "case" works.

What do you think? We could go either way and are wondering if Shopify Liquid got this one wrong.

Thanks in advance!

My instinct would tell me to follow Shopify, I will check in their code what is the expected behavior. And if confirmed then we need to fix it in Fluid.

I confirm this is the expected behavior. Also need to change the parser to handle , as a valid separator.

@sebastienros Thanks for the excellence you pour into this library.
