I support this idea of this library and I like the name.

I think one of the areas that is going to cause a lot of work is the 
different definitions of I/O pins, ports and flags between different 
processors. I wish Atmel would make things more consistent whenever they 
come out with a new device. Things aren't even consistent within a 
particular device family with the possible exception of xmegas. For my 
projects I end up defining some common names and then #defining the 
particular device configuration to those defines. It would be great if 
we could do something this automagically from the XML files.

I think camel caps versus underscore becomes a religious debate with no 
right or wrong answer. Given that avr-libc already uses underscores, I 
would stick with that. Note that I personally prefer camel caps but 
consistency wins over personal preference in this case.
