Good evening all,

With the recent discussions making it likely we'll start thinking about things to add, and more importantly, break in PHP 6, I'd like to bring up the topic of case-sensitivity in PHP again.

Would it be possible for us to finally be consistent in PHP 6, with everything being case-sensitive (or case-insensitive, as the case may be)? It would be a quite major backwards-compatibility break, but it would also be one that an automated tool could easily fix your code for. Perhaps something like Python's 2to3.

Thoughts?
