I was suprised to find out that ORDER BY is case insensitive.  Is
there a way to do a case sensitive ORDER BY clause?

use bytea instead of a text type.

  try this:

  select * from t order by replace(f,e'\\', e'\\\\')::bytea

you may want to index on  replace(f,e'\\', e'\\\\')::bytea

certainly wrong way.
keyword is "multibyte chars".

as he asked about case sensitivity, i presume he still want to preserve alphabet order -- u propose to cancel alphabet order at all.
