I don't understand how this would still work (at least when using the index). The index call would have Scopes set to the enclosing scopes {""}, which is equivalent to a search for ::A. Maybe I'm missing something.

Yup. There are a few other instances of this:

1. decls aliased with using decls - we model these as duplicate symbols
2. decls aliased with using directives - we ask clang to resolve the namespaces in scope when searching
3. inline namespaces - we mostly get away with ignoring them

AFAICS none of these are ideal for enums. (2 fails because the list of namespaces would get too long).
This is messy :-(
