Version/OS Agnostic.

Recommend changing the right-click, change case entries as follows:

  1. Lower case -> lower case
  2. Upper case -> UPPER CASE
  3. Sentence case -> Sentence Case
  4. Capitalize -> Capitalize (All First Letters)
  5. Title Case -> Title Case (the Key Words)
  6. Protect Terms -> Protect Terms

Hopefully these new entries will better communicate the effect of each (where upper case, capitalize, and title case are not immediately obvious).

This was supported in a previous JabRef version, but was changed to have standardized names due to the save actions

In that case, will the right-click menu be disappearing from the interface? I like the idea of consistency applied through save actions / clean-up. However, if a user is interactively using the feature when entering text in a box, it would seem better to have context immediately provided.

We add a tooltip with the description what the formatter does when hovering over the action in the right-click menu. This should suffice. :)

A tooltip would be great, thanks!
