Description

Pretty much any signal with the proper width can be assigned to an enum.

    typedef enum logic[1:0] {
        FOO_A,
        FOO_B,
        FOO_C,
        FOO_D
    } foo_t;

    foo_t foo;

    always_comb
    begin
        foo = 2'd2;
    end

There should be an error if it is assigned without an explicit cast.

Yes, Verilator is weak to almost non-existent in type checks. Needs work.
