I don't believe there is a way. There is a fairly complex set of rules
that handles all GTK+ names, and anything beyond that isn't handled.

It wouldn't be that hard to add such a capability - we currently
support

typedef enum {
  MY_FOO_BAR = 0x1, /*< nick=foo-bar >*/
  MY_BAH_FOO_BAZ = 0x2, /*< nick=foo-baz >*/
} MyBah /*< flags *>/

To handle cases where autodetection doesn't work for the short
"nicknames" for the enumeration and for whether the enum is a 
flags field or a standard enumeration.

Adding
 
 GnomeVFSURIHide /*< flags, lowercasename=gnome_vfs_uri_hide >*/

Or whatever would be fairly logical. (Possible a better keyword
than lowercasename)
