I already changed SQLite because as far as i know there were only two
extensions left which didn't follow studlyCaps convention which we agreed
upon twice so far - even though ppl pretend we hadn't. The only other
extension i spotted so far not following studlyCaps is ming - and that at
least doesn't use dashes and is still experimental. And to say it again, i
bet only a handful of ppl are using mysqli's oo api right now but many ppl
use things like __toString() already.
