[Python-ideas] PEP for enum library type?

[drekin at gmail.com]

Hello.

> masks/flags I see more as a special case of ints (if you use this you are likely trying to match some API defined in C or C++).

Comfortably encoding flags as int is just a half of FlagsEnum functionality. It has also abstract set semantics, see http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2013-January/019150.html .
