Don't give me hypothetical examples of breakage but if you were to check how many scripts break because of name spaces and how many because of case sensitivity you'd see they aren't in the same league.

Right?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.
