Come on guys, please don't flame here...

I don't like to force anybody in using a style they maybe don't like.
But on the other hand I think bearophile's arguments have some truth in
them.

What about adding a compiler switch that one can turn on and that warns
on obviously wrong names? Is this realistic? At least to check the usage
of underscores and captial first letter. The CamelCase can probably not
be verified, but hopefully a lot of programmers will use it, if the
compiler encourages them to not use underscores... Just an idea, you can
flame on, if you like.
