Therefore I use std.conv.text to convert the string enum? to string.

That converts the *name* of the enum to string, not the contents. (BTW, I think the name of the enum is actually the more useful behavior.)

Use cast(string) if you want to get the content out.

Thanks a lot, now the behavior makes sense.
I will create a feature request for the phobos issue.

Kind regards
