The problem is that constants are used all over the place in D - far more than 
you'd use in most other languages (primarily because of CTFE, I belive). If you 
use all-caps for stuff like enums, then you're constantly using variables which 
are all in caps. It would get really annoying. In particular, Andrei doesn't 
like that, so he wants constants - which would include all enums - to have the 
same naming convention as the other variables.
