Sorry, your speculations are mistaken. The pattern works well and
we've been using it repeatedly and with good results since C++
introduced "enum class".
Can you provide a sample code so we understand what you are talking
about ? It do not seems to me that enum classes defeat Jonathan point,
but I may be wrong.
The UserID example is a good one. You need to cast a couple of times
when doing I/O, then passing user IDs around is nice because no other
integers can be passed instead.
