Description

when looking into the proposed additions from INFRA/RAIL there is a mix of concatination and "_" separation of long terms,

e.g. in IfcDiscreteAccessoryTypeEnum

POINTMACHINEMOUNTINGDEVICE
POINT_MACHINE_LOCKING_DEVICE
RAIL_MECHANICAL_EQUIPMENT

the prefered way in IFC had been without "_", although it was never 100% obeyed and there are several existing cases with "_". But adding similar concepts, as above, sometimes with and sometime without an "_" to the same enumeration is strange. The usage style should at least be consistent within one enumeration.
