thats not what "can be easily converted" implied ...

windows users do not like command lines ;)

it is for you and for me, but our average user is well below
our level :(
look at all the user questions and bug reports regarding things
like "can't send header ... output already started at ...",
"notice: undefined variable" or "notice: undefined constant xyz,
asuming 'xyz' instead"
a lot of people do not read error messages, they just see that
something does not work as it should
and with my example of callback functions it usualy isn't even
clear where the actual error is due to the additional level
of indirection
Zeev: btw., what about my "undefinde function ... maybe you were
looking for ... instead?" patch? could be extended to look
for case-only differences before performing the levenschtein
comparison *if* we switch to case sensitivity so we at least
had a better error messge even if people don't read it ;)
