I agree, so I'm sending a patch that does exactly this. If the enum does not have duplicated values, all remains the same (the "values" attribute is a dict of value=>enum_type). If it has duplicated values, the duplicated values point to a tuple of enum_types in the values attr dict. Remarks: - Maybe I should use lists instead of tuples to avoid the list <=> tuple conversion - I did not use tuples for all entries in the values attribute to keep the source compatibility.
