The only time property lists are case sensitive when doing queries is if
you are using *strings* rather than symbols as the property names.

Isn't it the case that the XML Parser Xtra creates property lists with
string property names?  This would cause the experience you're getting
where some queries would fail because of case sensitivity.

E.g.

propList = ["filename" : "propertyValue"]

put propList["filename"]
-- "propertyValue"

put propList["FileName"]
-- <Void>

put propList[#filename]
-- <Void>

I know this is not exactly what you were posting about but it's related.
