@Julian: Giving flag combinations their own name can be useful. For example, instead of seeing Color.GREEN\|RED one can see Color.YELLOW . @Marc: I'm not convinced this is a needed change as it doesn't seem to be a common method, nor one that cannot be easily implemented independently (perhaps as a recipe in the docs). Are you aware of other enumerations that take this approach?
