I'd also like to draw specific attention to the open question, which I

soliciting feedback on: how should `#[\Override]` work for enum cases?
See
the RFC page for details.
We've been pretty clear so far the “enum cases are just constants”, e.g.
in the RFC for `#[\Deprecated]`
(https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecated_attribute):
Enum cases are internally implemented as class constants. Adding the
#[\Deprecated] attribute to an enum case will behave as expected.
Given that:
interface NamedX {
public const string Name = 'foo';
}
enum Foo implements NamedX {
case Name;
}
is a thing already and fails with:
Type of Foo::Name must be compatible with Named::Name of type string
as expected and
interface NamedX {
public const Name = 'foo';
}
enum Foo implements NamedX {
case Name;
}
without defining the constant's type just works by the enum case
shadowing the interface’s constant it seems consequent to allow
`#[\Override]` on enum cases, even if likely not particularly useful.
