i'm not quite sure why you insist on case insensitive URLs. case
sensitive URLs are the standard all over the internet. i on't think i
have ever seen a site that had case-insensitiva URLs in my life. there
is no "standard technique" for this because AFAIK no one does this.
is there a reason you would want to invest the extra hassle and
processing to somehow get case-insensitive URLs?
