Sure, no problem. I just wasn't sure what should be the default, so started
with backward compatibility. :-)
There are ways to make this even more reliable, for example analyzer could
have a method for checking if it always does lowercasing
('isLowerCaseFilter()' or such), but perhaps that'd be an overkill.
It's probably ok to default to lower-casing; deriving classes can override the
methods to change behaviour.
