Thanks - I agree that's a good approach for a lot of cases, but lambdas 
can only be simple expressions and ANTLR generates code with some cases 
that raise exceptions or break or nest switch statements, so 
unfortunately dictionaries of lambdas can't handle everything that 
ANTLR's generated code needs to do.
