No, unfortunately.  You correctly guessed my question is motivated by the IntFlag discussion.

I guess it could boil down to:  if IntEnum was not based on 'int', but instead had the __int__ and __index__ methods
(plus all the other __xxx__ methods that int has), would it still be a drop-in replacement for actual ints?  Even when
being used to talk to non-Python libs?
