Hi Maurizio,
i think you have overlook the fact that raw types and inference also doesn't
play well together.
accessibility:
Widening the type is usually a big No because of the security implication. The

have found some interoperability issues between generic enums and
standard enum APIs such as EnumSet/EnumMap.
Recently, we have discussed a possible approach that might get us out of
the woods, which is described in gr
