Even with the proposed converter class, I don't see a straight-forward way to meet the OP's goal of just specifying type=EnumConverter(MyEnum)
to get all of:

* display all possible values in help
* display them in lowercase
* accept them in lowercase
* and convert them back to the correct case before casting to Enum 
* interact meaningfully with "default"
* and not interact badly with "choices"
