ActiveRecord::Enum supports storing values in string database columns. This behaviour is not yet described in the rails documentation, but recently a test case for it was added. (rails/rails@67c1719)
I did not add extra tests for it, since the active_record_enum Type has not been tested previously. I did however add ActiveRecord::Enum attributes (with and without string columns) to the test models, so the behaviour is at least tested implicitly.
