I'm surprised that I can't find any Apple documentation that discusses 
case-sensitivity with respect to UTIs. Surely the answer is prescribed 
somewhere, and the omission from the dev guides is an oversight.

In any case, I found this thread from a couple of years ago: 
https://lists.apple.com/archives/cocoa-dev/2015/Apr/msg00214.html

Therein, Sean McBride and Ken Thomases suggest using either UTTypeConformsTo() 
or -[NSWorkspace type:conformsToType:] to test a UTI, rather than a string 
comparison.
