As a matter of fact, I already started writing a custom generator that overrides bits of the Java generator, but I quickly ran into major problems. Those problems are related to Ceylon's Java interoperability, for example I get errors when I override TableImpl, stating that some abstract methods are not correctly implemented, while in fact they are. Also, I had errors while calling super constructors, but once again it's a problem on our side. I'll submit this to the Ceylon team and see if it can be fixed.
If I can get interesting results, I may submit a pull request in the future ;-). Regarding \i, basically uppercase identifiers are for types (classes, interfaces, type parameters), while lowercase is for values (objects, functions, parameters, variables etc). Ceylon tries very hard to have a syntax as regular as possible, so enforcing those constraints helps a lot, unfortunately it can be a little annoying when using Java code...
