After careful consideration on the CS issue I must say I agree with John here. The _only_ case where I feel CS is a problem, is when dealing with other environments. But the price for changing this today is simply too high. It should have been done in PHP 3.0. We have other BC issues to soak our brains in. HOWEVER, I would like to suggest one compromise: storing class names (and maybe function names) exactly as they were spelled in the definition, and have get_class() etc. return that version instead of the lowercased one. This would at least make us able to expose interfaces with the intended case. -1 from me on case sensitivity in ZE2, +1 on storing "pretty names"
I agree and I'll try and check if pretty names can be handled. Andi
