Please in your bug reports, do mention the behavior that you see rather
than assume that I will see the same one. Also, try to explain the
behavior you would have liked to see instead.
What I see is that it jumps to "right after the previous matching case".
Is that what you see?
> Is this correct behaviour?
It's the expected behavior, at least (IOW if it changes, you'll have to
adjust the indentation rules accordingly).
Since "after otherwise" is not a position that corresponds to the end of
a "sexp", the meaning of (forward-sexp -1) is unclear. SMIE defines
such things in a way I found useful, but admittedly, it might take some
time to get used to it.
What behavior did you expect?
Stefan
