        I don't have any specific suggestion
          for an additional column, other than Berend's idea. However, I
          strongly advise against the use
        of ENUM's. They can create a major
          problem in the event one needs to be removed. 

    Because it will internally renumber them?

No, because while there is a facility to ADD a value to an enum, there is none to delete/drop a value.
