To be completely unconfusing, the friendly name used should be the same as in Tracks Preferences.

You mean the AUP file syntax is not documented? No it isn't - and if it was, I'd expect us to write "RMS" in the AUP not rms.

Rearranging enums destroys any chance of backwards compatibility and should never be done. The whole point of enumerations is that you can add new ones without breaking backward compatibility.
