Then let me throw in another one :)

Take into account that if we expect the compatible to be added somtimes in the
future (not the near future) this code will lay around for some time. People
will take this code as an example for new code, then we will need to explain
it... In that sense it would make more sense to have all made const: const: and
change this to enum once a new compatible is added to the mix.

Said all this, I leave it to the DT maintainers to decide :D
