Charles Lamb commented on HDFS-6413:
------------------------------------
[~cnauroth], Thanks for catching this. [~andrew.wang] and I talked offline.
Linux implementations go both ways, case sensitive and insensitive. We think
that making namespace and name case-sensitive is the best way to go.
> xattr names erroneously handled as case-insensitive.
