Serhiy had the idea of having Enum._convert also modify the __str__ and __repr__ of newly created enumerations to display the module name instead of the enumeration name (https://bugs.python.org/msg325007):

--> socket.AF_UNIX
<AddressFamily.AF_UNIX: 1>   ==>  <socket.AF_UNIX: 1>

--> print(socket.AF_UNIX)
AddressFamily.AF_UNIX        ==>  socket.AF_UNIX

Thoughts?
