A while back, we communally decided that the tokens should be as compact and simple as possible, i.e. no caps, no diacritical marking, no spaces, no underscores, not only to make them syntactically simple but to emphasize that they are only tokens. The text file still has the underscores, but now only for historical reasons (i.e. the original SV proposal).

If everyone would rather see the underscores back again, no problem.
