The RFC doesn't say a word on case, which i implicitly read as
case-insensitive (because how could it work otherwise).
(And note that i have forgotten which RFC this actually is, but
i can assure you i've read it before i wrote the code comment that
i've repeated in my first sentence.)
Note also that the pretty comprehensive TIKA database only uses
lowercase definitions [1].
