Which programming environment do you want us to all use, though? I can
only see this if you add this functionality to the Python interpreter itself,
as you can't enforce everybody to use a particular editing environment,
right? 

In fact my programming environment *currently* is case-preserving!
If I mispell 'Foo' as 'FoO' then the python interpreter will tend to issue
some complaints about this. How do you intend to improve this functionality?
