Rowen-
My suggestion won't work. You can assign a hot key to the last "change
case" option. Here's a script that will change the case of a
selection to upper case or lower case, based on the case of the first
letter. So you'll have to crowd your script menu a little bit more.

(* Change case of selection
*)
tell application "BBEdit"
set _result to find "(?s)(.*?)([a-zA-z])(.+)" searching in selection
of text window 1 options {search mode:grep, starting at top:false,
wrap around:false, backwards:false, case sensitive:false, match
words:false, extend selection:false}
if found of _result then
set _found to grep substitution of "\\2"
else
display dialog "Error.. either nothing is selected or there are no
letters in the selecton"
return
end if
set _lowcase to "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
considering case
if _found is in _lowcase then
change case selection of text window 1 making raise case with
replacing target
else
change case selection of text window 1 making lower case with
replacing target
end if
end considering
end tell
