I believe you can currently, but I don't think this is guaranteed to 
work in all future versions of the OS.

There are some letters that actually expand or contract depending on 
the case - for example '�' (aka latin small letter sharp s) is the 
lower-case form of 'SS'. Of course this specific case works for 
StrToLower() since it's getting shorter, but there will be cases in 
the future where lower-casing causes an expansion.

To be safe, use TxtTransliterate and watch for the 
txtErrTranslitOverrun result, which is returned when the source & 
destination are the same and there's an expansion in the 
transliteration that tromps on pending source data.
