The RFC currently only mentions:
> var_dump(Foo::Bar); // produces an array with "Bar is a case of the Foo enum"
But it would be good for it to spell out the full output for the
examples. From the implementation, I can see:
> object(Foo)#%d (1) {

I think the enum(Foo::Bar) header should be preserved. If the user
wants to print some ancillary data for some reason, I wouldn't object
to that.
