 This is tricky. There are already users which know and use the existing
 user interface.
 There are good reasons for changing option capitalization.
 And there are good reasons both for doing it before 1.0 and for waiting
 until after 1.0.

 We should try to pick the lesser evil of course, and also make sure to
 provide prominent notices in release announcement, README and man page
 when we change any of the existing options. Reopening for more discussion.
