Not currently, but if you do add them, I suggest you use the format that 
SQL::Translator supports, in the column_info, so that deploy() just works.

-> add_columns( 'enumfieldname' => {
      data_type => 'enum',
      extra => { 'list' => ['red', 'green', 'blue'] }
    });

- Currently this is mysql-only, and if you're lucky, the other producers 
will convert mysql enum types to normal fields with constraints..

NB You can also set: 'binary', 'unsigned', 'zerofill', 'character set', 
'collate', 'on update' in the extras data for mysql.
