1) We have artist and release level data quality, maybe something similar could be used to deal with track(/any entity) capitalization?

Track data quality?  Sounds like it could get messy.  If anything, perhaps a "Track is correct as is" flag, where ArtistIntent is identified to be overriding standard guidelines for capitalization (or whatever else)?
 

2) This may be hackish, (and add to server/ws load?), but what if GC checked the folksonomy tags that were attached to whatever entity was being edited? Certain tags could be treated as "error codes"; so GC would check for any tag with a "gc_" prefix, and then lookup an internal(/external) list of tags and their definitions. 

Yes, this sounds pretty messy to me, at least, and it definitely would increase ws load.  I'm not clear how adding a tag though would really be less work than just manually correcting the capitalization for "On".
