Is there anything I can do to help push this through the system more quickly?

One of the problems is that the 8.x patch will have to be redone every time anybody else changes the file.

The second annoyance is that the module VChess relies upon this functionality being available at installation, so I am sure that at least 90% of users will not be able to do what is needed. It's a bit sad if I have to wait till the 8.x
gets the patch installed in maybe a year or twos time before the 7.x one can be installed...

The D8 issue was closed as Won't fix with this comment from @daffie:

For adding new datatypes to Drupal core they must work for all three by core supported databases. There is no enum datatype for SQLite.
I do not see how we can fix this for Drupal core. This should be fixed in a contrib module.

Therefore closing also this D7 issue. Thanks!
