There are a few solutions I see here.
1. Use Calibre's Functions. An example is even given in the manual:
"Automatically fixing the case of headings in the document"
2.
AutoHotKey. If I want to "speed up" annoying shortcuts, I sometimes assign one of the extra buttons on my mouse.
For example, this AutoHotKey line:
assigns
Ctrl+q to one of my side mouse buttons.
Then a (previously annoying) click+shortcut combo becomes a simple:
1. Left-Click
2. Side-Click
3. Left-Click
4. [...]
If you want to get fancy, you could even have AutoHotKey click the "Find" button for you too! Then all you have to do is keep pressing the side button!

"Add title="" to h* based on existing TOC -- suggestion for new feature (or plugin?)"
Especially see my Posts #11, #13, and #15.
(I even spent a day writing up the ultimate "Title Casing: Everything You Didn't Know You Ever Wanted to Know" post... yet to be released though.*)

Yes, lots of exceptions, especially in Chicago's rules.
But even with "easy" Sentence Case, you have to take into account things like:
- Proper Names
- Roman Numerals
- Acronyms
- Previous Punctuation
- etc.
... It's all mentioned in my ultimate guide.*
