Currently, the documentation contains about 2 GUC variable names in upper
case, the rest is lower case.  (The exception are the list headings in the
main description in runtime.sgml, which are all upper case.  That is a bit
inconsistent, but I think it's OK, because here they sort of serve as
section titles.)  Also note that postgresql.conf, command-line option
equivalents, and SET commands all tend to use them in lower case, so that
seems like the direction to go.
