Enums in Go are not good. Code generation just makes it worse. Both because code generation has a bad smell and because nobody can agree on how to do enums in Go so we just end up with lots of diverging solutions.
Go 2 needs to have more usable enums. And while I'm not a big fan of "adding more stuff" to languages, it wouldn't hurt Go to learn a couple of things from Rust.
