In particular, check for capitalization errors such as "floatingitem"
instead of "floatingItem." (Also on the top ten list: hiddenItem,
lockableDoorway, etc.) You might want to do a spell check with ignore
case disabled; when you come across one of these words correctly
spelled/capitalized, put it in your spell checker dictionary for future
use.
