I have been dealing with the toggleCase bugs recently, and I would
appreciate some input on what I am inclined to do.
At the moment we have (1) lowercase, (2) uppercase, (3) first-
capital-rest-lowercase (not in the dialogues yet); (4) sentence
case, (5) title case, (6) toggle case (cASE x Case).
I consider 1-3 very useful, and 4 occasionally useful. As far as 5
and 6 are conserned, I consider them gimmics that we can and
should do without. The toggle case is very difficult to implement
properly, we would need language-specific word lists to know what
to capitalise and what not. The alternative, the user doing their title
capitalisation by hand is more efficient and clean, and I would
argue that
it actually requires less effort than to make a selection, open the
dialogue, and then check the result is satisfactory. As far as (6) is
concerned, I do not see any real use for it, since the only two
meaningful
results it can produce (case, CASE) are already take care of by 1
& 2.
So I am inclined to add (3) to the dialogue, remove 5 & 6 from it,
and close the title case bug.
