Yup, just trying to add some explanation on how it currently works.

Drekin, I'm sure you've already figured this out, but for those who may read 
this in the future:  what you need is a helper function:

def OptionalEnum(value):
    "could also be OptionalEnum(enum, value)"
    try:
        return SomeEnum(value) # or return enum(value)
    except ValueError:
        return value
