LLVM has a policy to not consider downstream issues when making changes, so you 
won't achieve much from that angle (you can check out the current camel case 
thread on llvm-dev to see how deeply some feel about this policy). And even 
though we ourselves had to do some build system gymnastics to merge this 
change, I do think this change does make sense for llvm/lldb.

However, ignoring all downstream considerations, I am still not a fan of code 
generation, and if you have a idea how to achieve something similar without it, 
I would be very happy to hear it out.
