Case ignoring comparisons make only sense on characters - not on bytes. And fps is ignoring character set conversion issues. I think the proper way is to provide a layer on top of (and separate from) fps that does conversion into character strings where things like case make sense.
My FastString library always stores everything as UTF8 to good effect. I have some nice fast unboxed UTF8 character folding routines in there too which you might want to grab if you go the UTF8 route. (which I recommend highly). http://repetae.net/john/repos/jhc/PackedString.hs John -- John Meacham - ⑆repetae.net⑆john⑈
