I was going to argue the spec treats 'lvalue' as a noun and so keeping with  matchers not capitalizing the first word I chose that option. But I see now the precedent has already been set: LLVM treats 'lvalue' as two words (at least for capitalization) otherwise it'd be clang::LvalueReferenceType. Stick with the precedent?

I'm about to add a bunch more comments suggested from @gribozavr that reference the spec. I can leave out the cross references but can I at least still mention 'reference collapsing rules'?
