I could really use something like in the name of this thread for buttons and labels so that you can still use the xbmc strings id for ease of people using other languages, but so that the letters will all be capitalized.

Got to admit I want this one too but I think something more like this tag for labels
<case></case> with values of upper, lower, same
<case></case> with values of upper, lower, same

Maybe also the values "first" and "each" meaning first word is caps, and Each Word Is Caps .

If it's a problem you could probably get round it by using fonts that only contain upper or lower case characters?
I think uppercase (capital letters) are 'a must' for some skins, like for example LCARS where it should be all upcase throughout the skins for it to look good. In other skins maybe the skinner want uppercase letters only in the home menu, ...but I agree that in general for most other skins all uppcase will just look wrong.
The option would still be nice, then it would be up to the skinners.

right, in fact, this request is actually for the LCARS skin. I joined with him to make the skin...but he hasn't made a single commit in the svn since then, so i guess i'm pretty much by myself now, which is fine with me. But yeah, in certain key areas, it would be nice to be able to use strings with all caps, such as headers perhaps, or on the home menu like you mentioned

I believe the capitalization terminology is:
So just <case> { upper | lower | title | sentence }</case> should be good. Maybe ditch sentence case?
Code:
UPPER CASE
lower case
Title Case
Sentence caseSo just <case> { upper | lower | title | sentence }</case> should be good. Maybe ditch sentence case?
