I think you are out of luck. My reasoning is that there is no such facility because it would be too easy to make a mistake. Not with legacy datasets, but with UNIX files. In UNIX, it is perfectly legitimate to have different files named: bill, Bill, biLL, ... It would be confusing and perhaps foolish, but legal. So having a "autolowercase" could result in problems. OK, I'm stretching for an answer. Most likely it was never even though of. Which is somewhat strange given how a normal get works.
