Noted. Of course, it is just a syntactical difference, so not
really significant (not significant in the sense of our debate).
But, I think we should produce a few real code files and then compare
the visual friendliness of the various markup alternatives. CAPITALS
do not really attract me, but a design for Perl6 is not about me, but
about the average programmer (used to the DOS filesystem?)
