According to these:

Writing .info files (Drupal 7.x)
#1346158: Decide on coding standard for capitalization of module names [policy, no patch]

Proper Case should be used. So, "Path Breadcrumbs" instead of "Path breadcrumbs".

But this policy works only for Drupal 8 as I see. For Drupal 7 Writing .info files (Drupal 7.x) is an actual documentation.

The documentation needed a version to refer to as example. They chose the current latest which is D7 (I guess because most people write new modules for D7), but I'm sure that these examples will be updated for D8 as well.

Same goes for the issue that was filed against D8. You cannot create an issue and choose <none> as a version and at the time the issue was started 8.x was the latest dev being worked on. In fact it was this very same issue that was filed against 8.x that dictated how to update the related documentation.

Lastly, it might be possible to have different project name casing per branch (if you don't update the .info files of older branches), but you can only have a single case for the project name here in d.o. This means that making the d.o name compliant with the policy but choosing not to update the .info files of all your module branches make it a clear WTF.

...just to give this a friendly push: @Spleshka, please let me know if anything in my explanation above is not clear. Thanx in advance.

BTW, we now have Writing module .info.yml files (Drupal 8.x) to deal with D8 and in the respective example you can clearly see that they use Proper Case for the name property (name: Example Module instead of name: Example module). So, both documentations for D7 and D8 suggest using Proper Case. In fact, I believe that Writing .info files (Drupal 6.x) should have also been updated, but I guess nobody bothered to actually do it.

Ok, I think we can do this. Thanks for your push.

@kalabro, please change module's name to a proper capitalization.
