   I see, actually we had this option before, which was later changed to 
`allow-upper-case`. There's an odd history behind this: since Flink doesn't 
natively support case-insensitivity, we cannot store uppercase objects in a 
case-insensitive storage because if Flink requests an object in uppercase, but 
the storage returns it in lowercase due to its case-insensitive nature, Flink 
would fail with an error stating that the object cannot be found.
