Michael Pizzo updated ODATA-963:
--------------------------------

    Proposal: 
4.01 services must support case insensitive system query options. built-in functions, and built-in operators
Interoperable 4.01 clients must continue to use the 4.0 defined casing.

  was:
4.01 services must support case insensitive system query options.
Interoperable 4.01 clients must continue to use the 4.0 defined casing.

>             Fix For: V4.01_WD01

>
> Today, query options in OData are case-sensitive (all lower case). I've personally seen (and at times experienced) getting tripped up by using the wrong casing of query options and getting unexpected results.
> Certain programming languages and APIs have casing rules (InitialCaps, camelCase, lowercase, etc.) that they might want to be consistent across system-defined and custom query options.
> Services should support system-defined query options regardless of casing.
