Hi,

In "File and directory recommendations" the rationale given for "Do not assume
names are case sensitive." is wrong. I agree that there are case insensitive
filesystems (FAT32 IIRC) but not all Windows fs are case insensitive. NTFS
for instance is in fact case sensitive, Windows just tries to hide this.
