Thanks for reviewing! The two main comments I picked up from you were:

 * whether or not the new enum should be non-anonymous
 * changing how we lookup entries in the strmap when processing input

On the latter of those two, I think that the suggestion you made would
break one of the test cases around handling the same pack being
specified multiple times with different flags[^1], so I opted to keep
the current logic there.

On the former, I don't feel strongly either way. If you do, I'm happy to
make that change, but if not I think the series should be good to go
as-is.

Thanks,
Taylor
