flufl.enum has been in use for Mailman for many years, and I would like to hear Barry's opinion on this.
I'm not sure it matters now (I'm about a billion messages behind with little hope of catching up), but FWIW, I have use cases for extending through inheritance and haven't had any kind of semantic confusion. But then again, I haven't particularly needed to do type checks or isinstance checks, and I haven't needed to put methods on enums either.
