I also think the present UpperCase or lowerCase case distinction
should be preserved.
It is simple and non-intrusive, it prevents accidental
copying/pasting of rules from lexer to parser/treewalker (as Loring
pointed out) and, the issue about method naming in the generated
parsers can be resolved with a rulename-to-methodname transformation
in ANTLR 3.
