Usually, the LIKE clause, in SQL, is case sensitive (but there are DBMS 
implementation that it is case insensitive) 

The  insensitive like query is solved in different way by example: 
1 - Postgres: ILIKE ... 
2- Oracle: regexp_like ...
3- My SQL:  aColumn COLLATE latin1_general_cs LIKE ...

Looks like the "COLLATE" is the ISO solution

Some times ago we talked about to implement "ILIKE" as CQL extension. 
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2359

But now, I am reflecting about the COLLATE option.
