Hi!

I should comment on why people want strings as enum values - just look
at ENUM type in MySQL. People use it, and if you take a look from that
perspective - it makes sense.

Enum type in the database is totally different because it's a constraint, not an alias to some underlying piece of data like enums in many programming languages. I think enforcing such constraint in PHP would be quite complicated.
