Let´s say you have a function that accepts only monospaced fonts.Then
you can use enum monospaced_font_type. Or a switch case where you need
to check all and only monospaced_font_type.

 this is about general problem of what i name polymorphism

I was considering the name polymorphic enum. But polymorphism is more about hierarchies.
For this feature it can be any set you want. We can have duplicates.
enum  E
{
    enum set1 {
       A
    },
    enum set2 {
       A,
       B
    }
}
