Capitalizing the commands could make the presentation even nicer. 
The commands in menubar menus are shown this way, so M-x should
follow suit, since M-x is also a menu which offers commands:

Delete active region 
Delete char (<delete>) 
Delete directory 
Delete file local variable 
Delete frame (C- x 5 0) 
Delete matching lines (flush lines) 
Delete other frames (C-x 5 1) 
Delete other windows vertically 
Delete region 
Delete trailing whitespace 
Delete windows on
