Hi Jed,

In the long run, you would want case-sensitive versions of gt and lt. So I 
guess you would end up with 4 filter operators: ltc, lti, gtc, gti.

If you had to choose, case-insensitive would be more generally useful.

I assume that under the hood once you have one version it would be 
straight-forward to clone and adapt another. Er, hopefully?

Thanks!
Mark
