This module came out of [this Discourse discussion](https://discourse.elm-lang.org/t/how-to-do-enums-in-elm/1353)

In the original discussion, there was concern about putting a function in the record, with the potential for having a function in the model and thereby causing serialization issues.
In the admittedly simple example project included, the Enum never had a reason to be in the model.
