That there seems to be no official title case, doesn't seem to hinder
anyone using it.

I only have one:
Consistency. Every application out there, and in our repository, uses
title case. All other operating systems (and thus all GUI applications
we may port, ie. Firefox, Qt apps, etc.) use title case.
Changing this for Haiku doesn't really make much sense to me, just for
the sake of it.
