The nomen option of jshint appears to behave exactly the opposite from jslint.

I know nomen is not officially supported by jshint, which is a good thing. However, if you prefer jshint but have to work with people using jslint with that option enabled in the source code you get different behavior between both quality tools:

jslint: nomen=true -> names should not be checked for initial or trailing underbars.
jshint: nomen=true -> disallows the use of dangling _ in variables

Could you reverse this option for jshint or just remove it altogether?

Thanks!
