Description:
------------
Function names are case-insensitive. This is really stupid and makes for very bad code. If you want to really do object oriented code you need to support polymorphism and you can't do that with case-insensitive function names. How about joining us here in the 21st century and fix this.

I second this.

Seriously? Won't fix? This issue coupled with loose data types just compounds the reasons why developers opt for different languages. Bad practices encourage bad code.
