on the other hand, it prevents a very confusing situation where uploaded files
are case preserving and the case in links are case sensitive. you uploaded
your image as Foo.gif but then used {{foo.gif}} and cant figure out what's
going on !? tough!
i imagine there's middle ground to be found though ... considering the files
go through .php code rather than providing direct links, it seems like it
should be easy to have the .php code output the filename as found in the wiki
link rather than is in the filesystem ...
