I have to agree -- it is bad that PHP is case-insensitive. Or more
aptly, party case-insensitive and partly case-sensitive. Making Smarty
case-insensitive has to result in a tiny slowdown. Its dumb. People who
type {$myvar|CapITalizE} should be shot, not supported.
But I digress. PHP is not not going to be made case-sensitive (IIRC the
heat from the ZE2 thread), ergo Smarty HAS to follow PHP's casing
rules. Its better to be consistently inelegant than schizophrenic.
People's expectations should be met.
