That was certainly my reasoning. The underscore is particularly geeky.

I have the STS installed, but it doesn't seem to catch what I expect it
to. Sometimes it will refactor Spring files, but often not. I haven't
researched it much yet. It does do autocomplete of the XML by inspecting
the objects on many occasions, so it's definitely doing something.

I was going to ask about checking in the Eclipse STS prefs file since it's
showing up for me when I do commits. But those are all managed with
Eclipse externals right now and I didn't want to screw anything up.
