A first attempt (in fusepy), for anyone interested:

  https://github.com/jrk/case-insensitive-fs

It works for simple tests. I have yet to pound on it with anything too
serious, and make no guarantees that it won't delete your root
partition or make your house explode.

As an aside, I realize this could actually be useful to emulate
HFS+/NTFS-style behavior on other platforms for testing and debugging.
