`unexpected "identifier"` with enums

[eladb]

I tried this:

enum StreamViewType {
  /**
    * The entire item, as it appears after it was modified, is written to the stream.
    */
  NEW_IMAGE = "NEW_IMAGE",
  /**
    * The entire item, as it appeared before it was modified, is written to the stream.
    */
  OLD_IMAGE = "OLD_IMAGE",
  /**
    * Both the new and the old item images of the item are written to the stream.
    */
  NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES = "NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES",
  /**
    * Only the key attributes of the modified item are written to the stream.
    */
  KEYS_ONLY = "KEYS_ONLY"

}

This happened:

an error has occurred:
Failed to compile.

I expected this:

To give me a nicer error indicating enums syntax is currently different or to work?

Is there a workaround?
