So if a user defines a converter for Boolean=>Enum for example, that 
would not work on e.g. Oracle since on such a DB the column type is integer?
I am not sure if a converter for Boolean as source type would make 
sense, but if allowing it adds a lot of complexity I'd say don't support 
it for now and wait for a user to complain. Seems like a pretty edgy 
edge case to me :D
