At least we would have a good and unique style.
IMHO, that's taking it too far. Usually there is only made a difference between
scopes (e.g. field and parameter, or global symbol and field), that could
cause confusion. Within the same scope, duplicate identifiers are already
excluded.
The Delphi notation is not entirely consistent though, the interface "I"
prefix convention e.g. is therefore not that logical, and probably
inherited.
Enums are also commonly prefixed, but I wouldn't mind an option to turn
enums into a different scope (so that you can only use them qualified).
IIRC a recent Delphi adds such switch, but I'm already used to it from my M2
days.
{$scopedenums on/off} already works in FPC 2.6.0.

Sven
