And inspired by the other thread, Ellipsis (...) is now used to indicate
"use the next value". Ellipsis can either be assigned to an enum value, or
passed as the first parameter to EnumParams or when calling the enum value
during construction.

None is no longer valid.

 Python 3.3.0 (v3.3.0:bd8afb90ebf2, Sep 29 2012, 10:57:17) [MSC v.1600 64
bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from enum import Enum
>>> class MyEnum(Enum):
...     A
...     B, C, D = ..., 5, ...
...     E = ...
...     F(..., 'f')
...
>>> MyEnum
<enum __main__.MyEnum {<EnumValue 'A': 0>, <EnumValue 'B': 1>, <EnumValue
'C': 5>, <EnumValue 'D': 6>, <EnumValue 'E': 7>, <EnumValue 'F': 8>}>

I'm stopping now.
