One issue I don't see addressed here is int-compatibility. Am I correct to assume that nothing changes w.r.t. that, and that an IntEnum subclass of Enum will be provided which is isinstance(integer)? Does that become straightforward by nature of enum values being the type of their enumerations? Eli
