Isn't the largest concern consistency here? We now have the oppurtunity to make our OO stuff consistent with the 3500 other functions; even the OCI ext made the move. There is no reason to have the Dom ext use studlyCaps; one of the guys on the Dom XML specs board is here at the conf and said there is no reason why it should use studlyCaps. So, that actually "destroys" the reason to use studlyCaps at all, so why not do the right thing and make PHP consistent with itself, ie. use under_scores for ALL functions and methods? I'm willing to prepare a patch to the source AND documentation to make that happen. And because I'm sure that because most people WANT consistency, I see very little against doing this.
