In my experience this UPPERCASE convention is variables that belong to the 
shells, and other such system automata -- in its normal case sensitive nature, 
it has completely no care about them really, and the convention leaves easier
to type lowercase free for human use.

It'd be nice if we honored it in all caps or lower, but then we have to wonder
what to use if the two don't match...

Anyways I don't know about you, but I set my proxy variables myself, so they'd
probably stay lowercase around here.
