The notion that tarball naming reflects in any accurate way upstream preferences is as weird as it comes. Are we supposed to rename packages every time upstream slightly changes its tarball naming? (as every project that did not automate its release process commonly does?) Moreover, our naming guidelines already mandate scores of adjustments to try to make some sort of coherent repository of upstreams with wildly different whims. Allowing mixed casing just sows confusion and induces new packager mistakes (that they sorely regret once they can not change the naming easily anymore). Finally, if you want to strictly follow upstream choices please allow unicode and not just base latin in package names. Arguing about case when one can not even use upstream letters is a joke.
