> # Collection of all cases for an Enum
> 
> ## Introduction
> Add reflection capabilities for getting an `Array` or `Set` of all cases for 
> an Enum. 
> This would not be supported for enums with associated values.
> ## Motivation
> This feature provides a benefit for many use cases. 
> Multiple methods of doing this exist currently, however each has obvious 
> drawbacks.
> For an summary of current methods, see:

> ## Proposed solution
> 
> This could be implemented as a static function or static constant. 
>     enum Foo {
>         case CaseOne, CaseTwo, CaseThree
>     }
>     
>     let allCases: [Foo] = Foo.allCases()    // [.CaseOne, .CaseTwo, 
> .CaseThree]    
> 
> Alternatively, an extension of `Mirror` to support mirrors of types could 
> include this capability.
