Should this be switched as waiting on author or just marked as
returned with feedback then?

bloom is a user-facing extension, while src/test/modules are normally
not installed (there is an exception for MSVC anyway..), so stressing
add_enum_reloption in src/test/modules looks more appropriate to me,
except if you can define an option which is useful for the user and is
an enum.
