http://cr.opensolaris.org/~bpytlik/ips-2672-v1/ has the patch.
It makes case-insensitive search both possible and the default behavior. For local search, there's an option ( -I though I'm definitely open to alternatives -c?) that allows for case sensitive search. For protocol reasons, remote search is only case insensitive. There is a small (IMO) performance hit for both local and remote search. Case sensitive search still takes the same amount of time: .5-.6 seconds but case-insensitive search takes .7-.8 seconds. Remote search takes the biggest hit, going from .1-.2 seconds to .6-.7 seconds. For now, I think this is still acceptable. The time it takes will grow with the number of new search tokens introduced. If this becomes a performance issue in the future, there are several possible optimizations that can be made on the server side. My choice would be to essentially pre-build the case sensitive dictionary in addition to the case-sensitive dictionary.
