> currently Flink is case-sensitive to meta object names. For example, for
> table names, "t1" and "T1" are two distinct tables in Flink.
> There are two main reasons to make Flink case-insensitive to such names.
> 1) To make it more user-friendly for SQL users. Most popular databases
> nowadays are case insensitive to meta object names, to tolerate user typos in
> SQL commands and reduce usage friction
> 2) We chose Hive metastore as the main persistent catalog, and Hive metastore
> is case insensitive.
