An "InsensitiveString" type might not be a bad idea; it would also work to
have a new special property like "Is case-insensitive" for such an
enumerated property.
As for allowing aliases, how would you implement them in terms of
properties? I too think aliases would be great to see, but I can't think of
any way they could be implemented - I don't think special properties that
are also compound are allowed, for instance.

Don't miss this year's exciting event. There's still time to save $100.
Use priority code J8TL2D2.
