	Turns out there are quite a few UNIX and Windows users out there with 
case insensitive filesystems and this particular design decision seems 
to do very little other than to break archives that are ever checked 
out and then recommitted by people who use them.

	Does the rearrangement of the structure in this part of the design 
have any positive effects?  It was brought up in this thread by a user 
who finds it counterintuitive.  I don't believe this user is alone, but 
I wouldn't be complaining if it hasn't caused me to actually break 
archives when working on cross-platform, multi-user, distributed 
applications.
