Since this thing was bumped, and we experienced case-sensitivity related issues, I might add my thoughts to it as well.

Everything in Spring should be case sensitive, for both Linux and Windows (as to assure the game you write in Windows works for Linux too).

There's no point in enforcing case insensitivity, and the only thing is force people to mix camelCase with the_underscore notation.

A slightly more heavy handed (and perhaps more sensible?) approach would be to just read everything as lowercase.
