Now that I actually had the chance to play with the implementation, I see most
of my worst fears were justified. :-( Look:
>>> import enum
>>> class B(enum.Flag):
b = 3
c = 4
d = 6
>>> B.b | B.c
Traceback (most recent call last): ...
ValueError: 7 is not a valid B
>>> t = B.b | B.c
>>> t
<B.d|1: 7>
>>> B.b | B.c
>>> B.b | B.c
<B.d|1: 7>
>>> ~B.d
<B.0: 0>
Do you really find this behavior acceptable?? I see at least three bugs here.
At least you did say in the documentation
> Individual flags should have values that are powers of two (1, 2, 4, 8, ...)
but it seems to me it's not prominent enough.

Also, auto, despite parentheses, works exactly as it shouldn't.
>>> class C(enum.Enum):
a = b = enum.auto()
>>> C.a
<C.a: 1>
>>> C.b
<C.b: 2>
>>> def f():
return enum.auto()
>>> class E(enum.Enum):
a = b = f()
c = d = 2
>>> E.a is E.b
False
>>> E.c is E.d
True
>>> E.b is E.c
True
In my opinion, this is simply horrible. Even _you_ said
(http://bugs.python.org/issue23591#msg275093) this would be unacceptable. I'm
really, really sad.
