Hm, IIUC they are both found at step 5 or both at step 8 of
|tag-priority| (find a foldcased static tag in either the current file
or another one -- they are both in windows.txt). Since the tags file is
sorted without case-folding, case-folded tags are found by means of a
linear search, and the lexicographically first one (with F) is found
first. (see ":help help-tags" then search /\c^ctrl-w_f/ ).
When giving the exact case-matching tag, it is found at step 1 or 4, so
this gets priority.
What you ask is not illogical but I wonder what might be its
consequences for tag-search perfomance, especially on big tagfiles built
for the sources in large projects.
Best regards
Tony.
