While this is an interesting suggestion, I don't see it that way.
There is no risk of confusing one find qualifier with another, even if we
accept any case. Therefore I see no reason to insist that the qualifiers be
provided in any particular case. If a request arrives with a find qualifier of
"ORLIKEKEYS" or even "OrLiKeKeYs", then I'm happy to accept that as indicating
the intent of the request, even if it doesn't match the case in the spec.
Is there a good reason for these to require matching case?
Tony.

Claus,
I understand that it is not explicitly specified
anywhere in the spec, but
my personal interpretation of any literal string
is that it is
case-sensitive, unless explicitly specified otherwise.
My feeling is that
others operate similarly, although, certainly,
alternative interpretation is
possible.
Specification text always
maintains proper case when listing find
qualifiers' short names. I
wonder whether this implies that the authors
intended for the find
qualifiers to be case-sensitive.
You skipped the "Alternatives
Considered (optional)" section, so we have no
way of knowing why you
settled on the case-insensitive approach. Is it
because the
alternative is more restrictive than a spec reader's
potential
assumption?
