Hmm, lowercase filenames? I hope you are not suggesting to go and rename every "Jamfile" to "jamfile"?
No, we've always made an exception for that.
Which filesystems, exactly, require single-case filenames, how many bug reports from users of those filesystems we've got, and what market share do those filesystem have today?
The problems I've seen aren't with file systems, but with programs that partially enforce ISO-9660:1999. The other issue is consistency; what does the convention become? --Beman
