I think this is deliberate and it's unrelated to enums:

int ufcs(int i) { return 0; }
void main()
{
    auto i = 0;
    auto ptrInt = &i;
    auto a = ptrInt.ufcs();  // error
}

Same with structs.

There was a similar issue opened where someone made a rationale, it was about
not wanting to accidentally pass structs by value, or something like that. I'll
wait for someone to give a better response.
