Choosing enum entries randomly with GDScript in Godot 3.3 without listing each one?

Here's the enum declaration I'm using in GDScript:

enum Motion = { IDLE, STEPPING, DASHING }

I'd like to choose an enum variant randomly without listing every possible variant, allowing me to introduce additional variants later without needing to edit the code that makes the random selection.

Here's one approach I've tried:

Motion.get(randi() % Motion.size())

And another:

Motion[randi() % Motion.size()]

Both fail. One returns Null, while the other reports "Invalid get index '1' (on base: 'Dictionary')."

What's a way of achieving this that will actually work?

You can accomplish it with this expression:
```
Motion.keys()[randi() % Motion.size()]
```
It works since keys() turns the Motion dictionary into an array, letting you access entries with [].

For what it's worth, my game uses this approach:
```
Motion.values().pick_random()
```
