Vb.Net Capitalization

Paul Vick has an interesting post about capitalization of keywords in VB.

Yes VB is verbose, but not because it capitalizes it's keywords. VB is verbose because it favors keywords over punctuation. This favoring improves readability. Standard formatting and capitalization also improves readability. Even though VB is more verbose than C#, I am able to write code in VB faster than C# because of Visual Studios excellent Auto-Formatting.

Paul poses the question, should we add keyword capitalization options to the current code formatting options. YES! But why limit the capitalization options to keywords? It would save me tons of time if Visual Studio would automatically capitalize namespaces, class names, method names and variable names according to my company's standard.

Excellent question Paul. I can't wait to see it in VBx :)
