+1 for enums (whatever the reasonable syntax).

If they are added, IMHO they should be available for identifying
"States/Transitions", since the "string-labels" that are currently used are
logically "enum" values.

And, I'd rather my QML code use the "token-unquoted" for identifying
states-and-transitions, because I'm lazy (less typing) and it looks
"cleaner" (QML was brilliant to not quote the "keys", like does JSON).  ;-))
