Description:
on this page (http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/CASE_Statement.html#c3956)
, it says cases end with "END CASE". But on the flow control page, they just end with "END".   Tests tell me the latter is true (END, not END CASE)

How to repeat:
look at the documentation (http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/CASE_Statement.html#c3956)

Suggested fix:
Just lop off the last word of the syntax instructions on the above mentioned page.  Non critical, but easy to fix!

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.mysql.com/documentation/ and the instructions on
how to report a bug at http://bugs.mysql.com/how-to-report.php

Additional info:

The flow control section describes CASE expressions,
which do indeed end with END.

The CASE statement section describes the CASE
stored procedure statement, which ends with
END CASE.
