Hehe. This the one only case I'm happy we can't turn back the time ;) For me 
camelCase is *much* more beautiful  than underscores. When reading STL 
code my eyes coupled with brain  have  difficulties with instant distinction 
where the name exactly  starts and ends (thanks to intention of simulating 
spaces). 

PS. One worders are the best, of course.
