I think the problem is really that .enums gives you a Hash with the string names as keys. The .invert then just does what it is supposed to do. So either we let enums return an object Hash with the Enums as keys (which will probably break code), or we need to return a Hash with a special .invert method mixed in. But then we would also need to think what .kv and .pairs would do on that hash. I think we’re on a slippery slope here… :( Liz
