I still don't know the difference/meaning of: milestoneSe as it relates 
to splitID.

Why is Se upper/lower and ID upper/upper?

What does Se stand for?  Pt?

Start/End?  Part/Time? :)

if Se = StartEnd, then I think it should be milestoneSE (upper/upper). 
as they are different words.

BUT, ID by that rule would be Id (upper/lower), because it's the same 
word.  BUT I LIKE ID (upper/upper)!  Maybe we could say 'abbreviations' 
are always upper/upper, so we get ID and SE both.

:)  all in the purpose of consistency...
