How about adding a comparitor callback then?
Maybe even overload the third argument (e.g. if it's not a boolean, then assume
callback), so we can do something like:
in_array('a', array('A', 'b'), function($a, $b) { return !strcasecmp($a, $b);
});

Since in_array() handles different types, I don't think it would make sense to
add a parameter that is exclusive to handling strings.

Description:
------------
Can you please add parameter for in_array that let this function to compare
strings insensitive?
Test script:
---------------
// something like
in_array('a', Array('a', 'A'), true, true);
// 4th bool param says should the function compare string in a case-sensitive
manner or not
