I like MECH
for mechanical pins, CASE
sounds more like something that you have to manually solder on (e.g. like a cable onto the back of a potentiometer).
The rest is okay.

An edge case to consider: What name should a TO-3 BJT's collector (which is connected to the package's metal case) get? IMHO, CASE
would be the most logical option. I'd propose the following rules:
CASE
for mechanically and electrically important (i.e. not just a regular pin that is fused to the metal case like with a TO-18) connections to a part's or module's metal case.TAB
for horizontally mounted power transistors/ICs.MECH
for mechanical stabilisation without an important electrical connection.SHIELD
only for connectors and cables where it is connected to a cable shield.
That does leave a few unclarities, e.g. if a crystal should have a CASE
or MECH
, but I can't think of a better solution.
