I really don't see how the above comment is warranted, concerning implementing "proper" titlecase in a plugin. As you well know, the LogicalTOCStyler plugin now implements "proper" titlecase. The apostrophe problem has also been fixed.
So why are you still complaining about this in such a catty and sarky way?
To make things clearer, I can only really describe my own driving concerns whenever I put out a plugin for Sigil. Prime above everything else is that my plugin has to be dead simple to use. If it isn't simple, I won't do it. So that's why I rejected your further requests to allow allcap acronyms and allcap roman numerals within titlecased headings in my plugin. I rejected these requests because it would have made plugin usage more difficult to understand probably resulting in reduced usage of the plugin. Another good reason, of course, would be that allowing certain allcap words within titlecased headings would not fit the true definition of either titlecase or "proper" titlecase would it? So to put a nail on it for clarity -- I rejected your requests because I had more to consider than just
your needs.
