In my humble opinion, I for one completely agree with Phillip. I have had to sit down with quite a few new Python Programmers and show them how to use easy_install and I "thank God" easy_install is smart enough to figure out case sensitivity. This is a wonderful feature!!!! Please don't ever get rid of it :)
If easy_install had instead said "sorry, I can't find 'foo', perhaps you meant 'Foo'", then the user would be both spared frustration and enlightened.
