Agreed, and it's a perfect example of what's wrong with the GNOME attitude. Capitals exist for a reason. People who can read at more than a snail's pace use them to scan for the start of each sentence as quickly as possible (milliseconds do count), but apparently Mr. Siegel isn't in that category himself so he considers the feature expendable. Then he even changes capitalization in quotes, which he should know is wrong according to every style guide ever written, but those guides were written by non-GNOME people so of course he treats them as inferior to his own "Must. Be. Different!" anti-aesthetic. There are some important lessons here about the use of "it's open source" as an excuse for developer laziness/intransigence, but that should probably be another essay.
