Beware you are doing two changes in one here and only documenting one...

You also removed the case insenstivity.

Now, those things are supposed to be case sensitive afaik, but we have
enough legacy HW with more/less crap DTs and I'd be careful with
changing that without a good reason (ie, it breaks not to do it ?).

No objection with fixing the partial match tho.

Cheers,
Ben.
