What about deprecating case-insensitive identifiers but keeping them working. Wouldn't something like following work? lookup case-sensitive identifier if not found then lookup case-insensitive identifier if found then raise notice/warning and continue as usual else fall down and catch fire That way correct usage should be fast and incorrect usage work. And the case-insensitive fallback could be removed in PHP7 :) --- Ants Aasma
