Case sensitive filesystem with file names written on different on different
character set than current used to be real disaster. Unicode solves it
partially, but
really - case insensitive comparisions are language dependent. You need to know
the
language of filename. And I'm really not sure, how German ß would be handled.
Essentialy, case insensitive filesystems are less problematic.
