I've already implemented enum method calls without
parentheses in RTL Compiler.  I kind of felt that I was
wasting my time with this feature, and I wouldn't mind
stripping out the code to support it :-)

The question is whether existing designs would break if this
feature were removed.

If not removed, perhaps we can deprecate it :-)
