The note that the client needs to preserve case is already in the client-server specification document (doc/cvs-client.texinfo). If the client is not preserving case in some instances, then it is a bug in the client.

An editor should not be able to affect this since the CVS client uses
the file name case in the CVS/Entries file and not the case passed in by
the user or in the filesystem unless the file does not exist in CVS/Entries.
