Would be great to have: ‘ConfigurationOfRoassal’ chopCamel  => #(‘Configuration’ ‘Of’ ‘Roassal’).

It's too trivial, surely.
 
No it is not. Because you have to know about it. Thanks for that one. 

"I learned something today[tm]“

But the real things to learn are the Method Finder and the browser.  Adding a lot of names that are known to those that know some scripting language du jour, but are incomprehensible to me, and no doubt many others, is not doing anything for anybody, except trying to be pointlessly cool.  Trying to encourage programmers to use the ability of the system to self-introspect and self-document is giving them general skills they can build upon.  So a project to improve the UI so that programmers are led to tools they can use for discovery seems worth-while to me, while adding yet more short-hand to hand-hold the ignorant isn't helping, IMHO.

Right now I'm looking forward to add new methods that could be useful based on Ruby API (http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-2.1.0/String.html). These are a few of the methods that I'm planning to implement:
