The solution to this is to only use lowercase letters
except in proper names.
ie, the names of the two articles would be "Farbulator overflow valve"
and "Framis bulkhead". Now if there was a band called Framis Bulkhead,
you could have two seperate articles: one for the band and one for the
mounting location.
I agree with your main point - if the term is correctly written with
capitals, it should be written with capitals; it not, the article
title should match how it's written.
I would, however, advise against having two titles differing only in
capitalisation, because this seems to screw up browser histories, at
least in Mozilla & Firefox - to demonstrate, use an existing browser
window/tab to go to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid and then
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID; now click your "back" button, and
be confused... [Now I see that this doesn't happen in IE, I guess it's
a moz bug, but it's still confusing, and there may be similar problems
elsewhere and in other browsers]
