I see it quite the other way round: As long as I know my variable is of
type "dvdcss_method", I don't need to care if it is actually an enum or
whatever. I got myself used to typedef enums as soon as I use them as
actual variable types and not just for enumerating, I consider that
"cleaner". But it was just a suggestion.
