If it's considered to be not too backwards-incompatible, I think it would be nice to have str different from repr. That way we can finetune what exactly we need. But we can already do almost exactly that with int instead of str, so it's not too compelling. Much more important thing is the "repr as inverse of eval". Is there any way we can have that for our own enums (as a mixin or a decorator)? @module_global(re) class RegexFlag(Enum): ... It would be fantastic. :-)
