Actually, is LATIN LETTER GLOTTAL STOP. It is only the general category
property in the UCS that suggests lowercase.
My pasting error.

 What shall we do? Research seems required. ;-)
I think what seems required is simply to add a new character for the
lowercase and change the property of 0294 to Lu.
I was looking at a book on Cherokee phonetics today and 0294 was used 
in lower-case text word-internally. Now that's not necessarily a 
problem; PALOCHKA is also upper-case and is used word-internally. But 
I thought I'd mention it.
