Description:
It would be great to have LIST partition supporting ENUM data type since it makes the most amount of sense to have tuple data partitioned via LIST partitioning method.

i.e. an ENUM data type of sex being 'Male' or 'Female' and have the table 'LIST' partitioned based on either male or female.

Currently LIST partitioning does not support ENUM data type.

How to repeat:

i.e. an ENUM data type of sex being 'Male' or 'Female' and have the table 'LIST' partitioned based on either male or female.

Currently LIST partitioning does not support ENUM data type.
