New submission from Gereon Kaiping:

configparser.ConfigParser (resp. ConfigParser.RawConfigParser for python2) has 
a optionxform function which converts the option names in a section to lower 
case by default.

A similar function for section titles would be expected (cf. 
https://github.com/lmaurits/BEASTling/issues/46#issuecomment-195131900), but it 
does not exist.

If ConfigParser called such a function (reasonably named sectionxform), which 
would default to None (or the identity function) for backward compatibility, 
that would be nice and consistent.
