English is not written capitalized ;-). Capitalization is used according to
some tastes or applications. Same in French and probably many European
languages (Indian, as well, and more), where capitalization is used on some
purposes. I don't think that capitalization should be locale-dependant, but
an option - if one still wants to disable it.

Anyway, capitalization in Tellico w/ a French locale is not perfect (mostly
around articles), and I tend to ignore it.

My 2 euro-cents!
