Sure, that's possible. However, I don't find it any simpler than
using bitmasks. Quite to contrary - I consider it redundant to
bring new structure into existence when simple uint does the trick
just fine (IMHO, of course).

If you consider code to be inherently less readable because of this
approach I'll rework it. If it's not a such big deal for you I would
prefer to keep it as is.

Thanks!
