Mime type detection should be case insensitive

GNOME should be case insensitive for file extensions. Paul sends 2 documents to Dominic via email attachment. The file names are 'WhatInTheNameOf.Doc' and 'Q1-2006-Results.xLs'. Dominic receives the attachments, saves them to his desktop and simply clicks on them. We recognize they are Word document and Excel spreadsheet respectively and open them accordingly.
I just checked. Mime type detection is case insensitive.
