Yeah, I was wondering about those myself.  Probably we could just change
their names to something that could still be spelled.  Or do nothing ---
I can't see any obvious reason why the average user would need to
reference those functions/triggers anyway, and if he did, he could turn
off the force-lowercase flag.

If they care about case, they wouldn't be turning this flag on anyway.

What we are looking for here is a simple, understandable hack that
solves 95% of the problem for legacy applications.  Not something that
we'd encourage people to have on at all times.
