Description

@FlorianDue

In the PFDL, only lowercase letters (e.g. fields in structures) or only uppercase letters (e.g. service names) are allowed as the first letter for some components. For users it is sometimes very difficult to understand the error, because the error message, depending on the content of the task can be quite large. The following error message is a result of writing ProductionTask instead of productionTask

In general, it would be very helpful for users to remove these restrictions on namings and allow all namings to start with either an uppercase or a lowercase letter.
