If sentence case and toggle case are something supported in the ODF and OOXML
formats and in other office suites, then it would be useful to have it as part
of a character style.

I think we can use upper case, lower case, and title case in both places and
change the 'Effects:' label in the dialog to 'Capitalization:' and 'Relief:' to
'Effects:'.

We already have 'lowercase' in the menu and 'Lowercase' in the dialog, so 1 of
the 3 is already the same and 'Capitalize Every Word' isnt a good label. I
would assume that most users want the non-font effect version of these commands
to actually modify the underlying text, so dont think dialog corresponding
commands are needed.
