Internally-tagged enums are extremely useful and therefore used quite a lot in the wild. It's a bit of a shock to users to learn (the hard way) that they're not supported by `csv`. So it'd be great to at least document this limitation in the docs.

@BurntSushi could you please have a look? |

@BurntSushi Given that you explicitly asked me for this PR and it's a simple change that will likely help a lot of people avoid bumping into the serious and unexpected limitation, ignoring it for years, is very disrespectful to say the least. 😔 |

I just found this ticket after trying to get internally tagged enums to work... it'd be really nice if this was merged to at least warn users about the limitations 🙄 |
