It feels like a very convoluted way to implement a safe means of
reading an enumeration from a file, but given that that reading
incorrect data files is one of the main causes of enums taking on
invalid values, I have to say that this is the best solution should we
not be allowed the "is" operator or an intrinsic. If that is the
case, then I propose this gets added to TStream!
At least it hides the gruesome details, cause you only need to call
ReadEnum<> (or ReadRange<>)... And maybe the code the compiler generates
can even be optimized further. :)
