I think it's important to remember that a large proportion of the applications of
enumerations are not display related. Adding the fact that display readability and
code readability are different aims shows a strong reason for the separation of
enum and string... An alternative is to create a singleton class which manages
entries - Ala java style... I can outline how it works in an example if anyone's
interested...
