I'll let Eli or Ethan respond to this. It sounds fine to me to support you with some kind of hook in the spec, even though I personally would rather assign my enum values explicitly (I'm old-fashioned that way :-).
Assuming the picklability of functional API created Enums is fixed (sorry, another threadsplosion still awaits me), if you really have to have autonumbering, use the functional API. IMHO, the class API doesn't need them.
