Not really. You don't want to explain that to users and ask them to
change their settings before loading Seaside code?

<rant> What if we would integrate Code Critics in the ClassBuilder and
throw an error whenever we try to compile a class that does not
satisfy on of the included rules? For sure, that would lead to high
quality code. It is easy to imagine though, that such an approach
makes it nearly impossible to do anything useful anymore. </rant>

Code Critics can be run independently of the compilation and is able
to point out violations of common patterns, like the fact that
instance variables should be lowercase. Personally I try to follow
most Code Critics rules, even if it makes sense to do it different in
some cases. I am in favour of naming instance variables in lowercase,
however this is not something the compiler should enforce.

Cheers,
Lukas
