[MacRuby-devel] book idea - "making it look like Ruby"

Magically converting a snake_case method call to a CamelCase method dispatch
is bad for peformance and documentation.
I believe that Laurent addressed that topic a few times already but I might
be wrong.
There is currently no plan to support that approach in MacRuby.
