I don't think people should write code that differentiates by case, but case-sensitive coding leads to consistency in naming, so you will not read MySQL_ConneCt somewhere and mysql_connect somewhere else, while it means the same thing...
If you just want to promote case-accurate usage of the built-in functions, you could just start throwing E_NOTICEs or E_WARNINGs when the functions are called with a differing case. Being case-sensitive just for this seems overkill to me.
This is not a option due to performance reason. Please refer to the archive for details. -- Yasuo Ohgaki
