-----------------------------------
[~jaltekruse], I'm assigning this to you since you brought it up on the dev
list. Good to know that there is already an issue open to track it.
> Document ENUM as a logical type

> Key: PARQUET-322

> {{ENUM}} is used to annotate enum type in Thrift, Avro, and ProtoBuf, but
> it's not documented anywhere in {{parquet-format}}.
> According to current (1.8-SNAPSHOT) code base, {{ENUM}} is only used to
> annotate {{BINARY}}. For data models which lack a native enum type, {{BINARY
> (ENUM)}} should be interpreted as a UTF-8 string.
