> We currently don't have a way for adding values to an enumeration type. This would be helpful for defining custom vocabularies that extend base vocabularies. 
>  It's sort of inheritance for enumerations, given the fact that some programming languages implement enumerations as classes/objects with members/properties for the enumeration values. 
>  So we could add an attribute "BaseType" or "Extends" for EnumType to add new enumeration values.
