Someone suggested on IRC once that something

spaces, because the message names also serve as page names and maybe

than underscores.
That's bollocks, spaces in message names are fine and there's no
reason we can't use them. We have, I think, a few messages with spaces
in their names at present as it is.
I think I used ucfirst instead of Title::newFromText() to convert from
message names to DB keys, for efficiency reasons. That could be changed, of
course. The efficiency of the message cache system has been completely blown
to hell anyway, by the invention of parsed messages. Here I am worrying
about a few more lines of PHP, and then someone adds a shell out to Tidy.
