Funny, I parsed that as "I use carbon Emacs <gag>".  Anyway, we use  
capitalized names since they are used as keys in a dictionary, and  
things break internally if we change a character in the key.  We  
could probably lowercase them on saving, but shouldn't bibref be  
fixed to understand the keys, since they're correct BibTeX?
