Hi Bas
This could be a useful package but can you add a note that this does
not do correct Unicode-aware comparison on String (though AFAICT it is
correct for Text)?

Dear all,
I had this old module laying around that I wrote some time ago. I dusted it off and uploaded it to Hackage:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/case-insensitive-0.1
The package provides the module Data.CaseInsensitive which exports the CI type constructor which can be parameterised by a string-like type like: String, ByteString, Text, etc.. Comparisons of values of the resulting type are then insensitive to cases.
It is my hope that one day packages like snap-core[1], http-types[2] or wai[3] all use this common way of making strings case insensitive.
Regards,
Bas
