Are you sure? As I understood from Julian's mail, the problem with the
case-sensitivity really seemed like a bug: files with uppercase
characters were simply not found, not even if the pattern was spelled
out in uppercase. See the last one here below:

So that looks like: you tried to make it case-insensitive (by
converting the pattern to lowercase internally), but it doesn't work
(because the paths are not converted similarly or something).
(I haven't tested it myself)
Orthogonally: I think case-insensitive matching would be nice to have
as well (either always, or optionally with some flag / pattern prefix
/ ...). Use case: Windows user base, trying to search for files with
an extension, like *.PNG, *.png, ...

Great! Thanks for making this work :-).
