Yes, I am sure in some situations it can be handy. But it's a a bit of
convenience that has a too much high price, the semantics is less clean, and
it's more bug prone. So no thanks. Keeping things tidy is more important.

Then there still is the consistency-issue (anon. enums are treated
differently then named enums).
Apart from that inconsistency: Yes, it wouldn't be unreasonable to just
cast the int to MyEnum or the other way round for comparison.
(or, in my example: MyEnum x; stream.read(cast(int)x); ...)
