The D-Bus spec does say something like

  Interface, signal, method, and property names are
  "WindowsStyleCaps", note that the first letter is
  capitalized, unlike Java. 

but AFAICT it is not enforced anywhere except for the fact that it
causes hiccups in at least the Qt code generator. That could probably
easily be fixed in Qt. Either way, we probably want to change this
anyway in DeviceKit-disks as noted in my reply to Davide.
