Hey, I just realized that you can get pretty darn close with just a little bit
of extra typing, and existing stdlib:

    from enum import Enum
    from itertools import count

    auto = count()

    class Color(Enum):
        red = next(auto)
        green = next(auto)
        blue = next(auto)

Look ma, no magic!
