You couldn't create an enum of callables, but that would be a

But aren't all classes callable?

An enum of classes would be seriously weird as well, I think.


I don't think iscallable will work, since that descriptors like
staticmethod and classmethod aren't callable. Nor are properties.


I think a solution may be an explicit decorator that tells the
metaclass not to skip the object into an enum value:

Another option is to check if the item is a descriptor (class, static, property, or other); yet another option is to check if the item is the type of the enum class (int for IntEnum, str for StrEnum, etc.).

The code I posted earlier checks for callable and type -- checking for 
descriptor also would not be much more effort.
