Very sensible, although calling lower-case() is not actually
guaranteed to normalize - for instance, lower casing the German word
ESSEN cannot be done with the lower-case() function - the later will
produce essen (I shan't attempt to type the proper lower-cased version
in an email - i don't think I'm set up for non-ascci :-( ).
