I'm not following this request either, especially the colored part.

However, I can imagine adding a variable that gives the user full control over 
the action-invocation.  In:

    argparse.HelpFormatter._format_action_invocation method.

Currently it accepts the metavar (but not the tuple version) for a positional, 
but for optionals constructs:

  -s ARGS, --long ARGS

This can be quite long and ugly if the ARGS is a long choices, or there are 
many flag alternatives.  A number of SO users have asked for something simpler, 
usually with just on flag or

  -s, --long ARGS

There may even be a bug/issue(s) related to this already.
