We've already seen proposals to solve the problem, but please, we must maintain as much backward compatibility as possible. Every syntactical (and semantical) change results only confusion. The built-in chain and target names are all fully capitalized. What about the simple restriction that user-defined chain name cannot be a string consisting of capitalized letters only.
