Well, this is the map of database types. There is no reference to enum or set.

I think you may be able to pass enum in as the type and/or pgsql_type,
then you can put the options in the length (with each option separated
by commas). But, I am unsure about possible problems. So, you (or
someone else) would need to run through the code to see if it makes
sense to do that.
