---------------------------------------------
Thanks Erick.
And yes, the code has not been touched. We are just not advertising the legacy
approach anymore by being inconsistent ourselves.
> fieldType capitalization is not consistent with the rest of case-sensitive
> field names

> For legacy reasons, both fieldtype and fieldType are acceptable in
> schema.xml. However, XML is case sensitive and this causes confusion when
> people see both fieldtype and fieldType used in official examples.
> This causes them to assume that maybe our particular XML is not case
> sensitive and then they mis-case other elements, such as dynamicField, which
> are then silently ignored.
