    Description

      It is currently very cumbersome to use QMetaEnum when the "enum" is a QFlags or a C++11 scoped enum, because neither of these convert to integral types, which is what QMetaEnum uses.

      Ideas range from simply a adding QFlags/scoped enum overloads to QMetaEnum, as well as creating a QTypedMetaEnum.
