Ugh.

Well, it's a bit ugly.  I think typesetting has moved on since
the days of capital letters only.  Can we use \cfoot to override
it with "Contents" (and "List of Tables")?  Or something else?

I mean, we have them capitalised correctly (as in just the initial
letters) in the actual headings, so I'm a bit puzzled as to why
it doesn't just take it from there.

Yes please.
