Incidentally, while I don't like case-smashing filesystems, I do think
that case-insensitive filesystems are a good idea, and I wish Unix was
like that. Having files called Configure and configure, or install and INSTALL is confusing even for someone like me who has used Unix-a- likes
almost exclusively for umpteen years.

So are "install" and "INSTALL" the same file? What about "ınstall" and "İNSTALL"? Does it matter what locale you're in? How about german "ß" and "SS"?

Character set hate. It's the new black.
