I guess I'll hold off on commiting this for the time being - Stephen C. asked (on Jira ticket LANG-316) whether we should have a CaseInsenstiveStringUtils - and Stephen K's is also a good point (Collators were news to me).

Yeah - ascii still does scale in some cases. However, I imagine String.equalsIgnoreCase() is an exercise in legacy code conversion as well as speed. By all means, add ignoreCase for the shops that don't need/know better, but just make sure that Collator/Comparator use is an option, and is encouraged in the javadoc. I'm not sure how to raise a ticket for this, as it probably spans quite a few classes...
