Eric Snow added the comment:

I'm also -1, though I do appreciate the "indicating intent" argument.  What's 
the risk that someone will accidentally overwrite an enum item?  Also, is there 
other enum functionality that relies on the continued existence of the initial 
enum items?  If not then I'm in the "consenting adults" camp.  Eli makes a good 
point about the potential for (ultimately) unnecessary complexity and what that 
costs us.

However, now's the time to come to a conclusion--before the 3.4 release (and 
likely beta 1) lock in the API.
