When your dealing with phases or angles, it will be inconvienent. Even if
you use degrees, it will be anoying to have 360 (or 400, i18n :) points,
only 4 of which have labels.
Ditto for tape simulations, the speeds are 76, 38, 19 and 9.5 cm/s (30,
15, 7.5 and 3.75 inches/s).
Tim sent a mail a few days ago with some other examples where integers are
not the significnat points.

I disagree: if I have a control thats "wave,
INTEGER where 1=sin, 2=tri,
3=sqa, 4=saw" and one which is the same less the INTEGER hint (ie. it
crossfades) then the enumeration points are no less importanti in the
non-INTEGER case.
OK, then we allow HINT_ENUMERATED for float ports as well, and provide
a string (or NULL pointer) for each integer in the range. I proposed this
before IIRC.
I think that in a case like this, you will always be able to map the
'important points' to integers.
