Excellent!
Just little bits of constructive criticism:

No, case-insensitivity is user-UNfriendly. In MediaWiki links and
templates are case-sensitive (except the first letter) and it is a
Good Thing. The script language must also be case-sensitive. Hey, it's
less work for you.

One-letter names will be very confusing. 's' and 'g' can mean just
about anything. I would offer better names, but i don't even
understand what are these supposed to mean.
