enhanced enums - back from the dead?

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

Thanks for the data - I guess the takeaway is that, as expected, making 
type-checking of raw typing sharper will help migration (e.g. add type 
parameters to  existing code that might use some generic signatures 
already), but it comes at the cost of some source incompatibility.

If we restrict this only to enums, of course this would be a non-issue; 
as you say, enums are non-generic right now, so we have a clean slate 
(assuming we're ok with the asymmetry).

Thanks again.
