ENUMs are engine instructions that do particular things, you cannot just randomly use one and expect it to work with whatever you want. Plus I am sure most if not all ENUMs are already planned out for ROTR.

... you can however copy an ENUM from a power that doesn't have a side-bar shortcut that is similar to what might want to do.

You're welcome. But I should mention that having multiple different powers with the same ENUM only works mostly flawlessly if none of them are side-bar powers, hence the limitation mentioned.

This is because SAGE bugs out on this for some reason - if a player has multiple objects with different powers that use the same ENUM, then any side-bar shortcuts relating to those powers will not work. Oddly, it is ONLY the side-bar shortcuts, the regular buttons in the selected units/buildings will work just fine.

You can test this even in unpatched vZH, if you have a regular GLA and Toxin Gen Command Center and try to use the Ambush power's shortcut. It will not work.
