New submission from Jordan Ephron :
Prior to 3.8 it was possible to create "abstract" enums (without members) and
mix them together. To motivate with an example, perhaps we're modeling an API
and want to be robust in the face of inconsistent casing
class CaseInsensitiveSt

Sorry, that’s maybe less relevant to the example. It’s just a subclass of
string with some marker to make it detectable later on, similar to schemes that
taint user input to prevent sql injection or whatever

Oh, on further investigation I see that the example wouldn't have worked on 3.8
anyway, due to issue34536 adding some checks to the type returned by _missing_,
so maybe I'm pushing Enum too far in

Oops, still getting used to the Python mailing list format. Learned
something new! Thanks for all your awesome work on Python.
