But for the "future" it has some problems: It decreases readability (and searchability) of the code, it might make case-sensitive search not work as expected, it prevents CSS override, it prevents the use of real small-caps fonts if available[*].

[*] which reminds I still have to try definind a small-caps font in ADE, maybe that would work. I mean, using @font-face to define a custom font as small-caps, I'm suspecting ADE fails at synthesizing small-caps, but could use a pre-defined font...
