RE: Editorial comment: Please use ALL CAPS for conformance words SHOULD, MUST, etc.

FYI, my changes which fix this issue have been merged into ReSpec v3.1.46.
You might wanna update ReSpec for the other drafts as well.. e.g. RDF
Concepts (cc'ing Richard).

Btw., Turtle uses lowercase italic letters in conformance words.
