The best suggestion I think I have in this situation is to use case/esac

case $test in
   one|two|three)
	echo match
   ;;

   *)
	echo no match
   ;;
esac


I don't know why I didn't just think of that in the first place.

It requires no special syntax or setopts, and allows for easy
expansion/removal of matches.
