There I was explaining something better to Daniel Gibson. The purpose of the
enhancement request 3999 has nothing to do with a request for a different
keyword.

I think now I have presented my point as well as I can, and people have given
comments and opinions. I'd like to Walter or/and Andrei to express their
opinion about the bug 3999 :-)
I think it's a good enhancement. C++'s good old enum has been
instrumental in finding a few bugs and clarifying a few interfaces in a
project at work. Based on that experience I'd say that there's a chance
more restrictive is better. We need to find a principled way to define
semantics though - if we disable comparison it really means we're
disabling implicit conversion.
