I am not sure I understand what this is trying to clarify. Can you elaborate a bit on your idea?

When adding an enum type property, you must put a path and not just the name of the entity as for relationships for example.

When we create an entity and we want to add an enum type we have no indication that gives an example to add the path while for other types like relationships it asks for the type and there is no need to give the path. This particularity is not documented and for beginners, we can tend to put just State for example instead of putting the complete path without php. Otherwise, perhaps it would be good to impose the path as /app/Entity/Enums and in this case we could search and list the available Enums.
What do you think? Am I clearer?

I am sorry, but I still don't understand. Where in the Doctrine context do you have to add a path?

php bin/console m:e test
New property name (press to stop adding fields):
enumtest
Field type (enter ? to see all types) [string]:
enum
Enum class:
I type not a name but path with name App\Entity\Enums\state not state or state.php
It's not documented and a difficult for newbies
