lo-commit-stat: why lowercase the first letter?

Hello Petr, all,

Seeing a fix in wiki [1], IIUC this is generated by lo-commit-stat,
which is intended to lowercase the first letter [2].

By git annotate, this part of code is there since the start, so I
would like to ask:
* why lowercase the first letter?
* could this behavior be removed? If yes, I can push the patch to master.

Sorry if this mail sounds offensive, it is not intended, of course :-)
