   From the issue:
   >Another way of looking at this is that field/property uses the generalized-typename rule and a method's return type uses standard-typename rule.  The later requires a capital letter (A-Z) as the first name character.  The former has allowances for lowercase names.  I'm not sure why this distinction exists in the parser.
   ```
   generalClassOrInterfaceType
   options { baseContext = classOrInterfaceType; }
       :   qualifiedClassName typeArguments?
       ;
   
   standardClassOrInterfaceType
   options { baseContext = classOrInterfaceType; }
       :   qualifiedStandardClassName typeArguments?
       ;
   ```
