I'm surprised you haven't been bitten by scala's enumeration enough to avoid it here.  How about I make these case objects.


object Modifier extends Enumeration {

  val `protected`, `private`, `override`, `abstract`, `final`,
       `sealed`, `implicit`, `lazy`, `case`, `trait`,
       deferred, interface, mutable, parameter, covariant, contravariant,
       preSuper, abstractOverride, local, java, static, caseAccessor,
       defaultParameter, defaultInit, paramAccessor, bynameParameter = Value

}

Why spend 22 more classes? An enumeration is perfectly fine here.
