- Normalize options from snake_case to camelCase (e.g. https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/b3ba1ef8ddccbb583102d3228c8ccb3138f94ab3/src/Cache/Engine/RedisEngine.php#L74 )
- Remove default inflection of template names to underscored version in
View. - Consolidate
RoutingCollection::parse()andRoutingCollection::parseRequest()into a single method and alsoRoute::parseRequest()andRouter::parse(). URL parsing doesn't need the full request instance so consider passing only URL string orUriInterfaceinstance to the parse methods. - Remove
