So, can I have a clear vote on these 2 issues:
1. Consider all our configuration directives for case-insensitivity 2. Make PerlOptions case-insensitive
I believe your vote proposal doesn't state the arguments correcly. I believe it should mention:
"while somewhat slowing down some APIs"
I certainly should have mentionned that..
e.g. I'd +1 to consider the case-insentivity in general, but -0 if it slows things down.
Well, I don't think there is any way to have case-insensitivity in general without a speed penalty wrt. case-sensitiveness.
also why those are 2 issues, and not one?
Well, I wanted to raise a more general issue of case-sensitivity in config files. I believe that having some directive case-sensitive, and other case-insensitive would be a _bad_ (certainly confusing thing).
So, even thought we started talking about specifically PerlOptions, I wanted to get a good idea of how people felt about the rest of our configuration directives.
