Mine remains that the user tools, when used on a case-insensitive
filesystem, should be smart enough to recognize this fact and behave in
a case-insensitive manner. Of course this is easy for me to say, as I'm
a user, not a dev. Implementing this probably involves passing
case-sensitivity information to the server on every single call, which
would be a huge change.
