New submission from Chris Lambacher: The use case for this is that when you are in a template and you want to use the Enum instances in a conditional, then you need to pass the Enum class to the template or start using someenumvariable.__class__.someenumvalue. Instead it would be useful to be able to do someenumvariable.someenumvalue. Implimenting as __getattr__ on enum class allows real attributes to take precedence and also allows for overriding of behaviour in child classes.
