Yes I have often wished for a way to do that too. qDebug() << enumValue works so well in C++ as long as you used the Q_ENUM macro, so it would be nice to have an idiomatic way to access the same debug operator in JS. Then again, I wish we had ubiquitous toString() like Java has, instead of the debug operators only being accessible when you’re using qDebug. (I think the reason we don’t is that people might think of toString() as a serialization mechanism? But I’m not sure.). Maybe there’s another idiom on JS that I don’t know about.
