How to implement a custom IntoPyObject for a pyclass object

[best2come]

Is it possible to implement a custom IntoPyObject for a pyclass object?
When I do this I get the error "conflicting implementations of trait pyo3::IntoPyObject<'_> for type enums::ValueTypeEnum"

The #[pyclass] macro automatically implements IntoPyObject for the attached type. It's implementation will turn the Rust type into the corresponding Python class that the macro created for you. There is (currently) no way to change that. What would you like to archive? Maybe there is a different way to archive your use case.

I hit this recently too where I was trying to create the equivalent of a string enum in Rust that I wanted to use in both Rust and Python. I started with a basic rust enum and was trying to update the IntoPyObject. This results in a duplicate implementation error. However, without pyclass I couldn't register the enum with the module.

Why was the default IntoPyObject implementation (which would convert Rust enum values into values of the #[pyclass]) not meeting your needs?

I was trying to recreate something similar (maybe the same) as StrEnum. It wasn't critical but I was trying to convert the Enum members to a string. After looking back. Maybe the answer would have been to declare the members of the Enum to contain a string and fill in their values during the new.
