Description

Hello,

I was looking for a caseless dict implementation for Julia (ie a case insensitive dictionary) but haven't been able to found one existing.
What is your opinion about such a data structure ?
Do you think that such a data structure

  • should be implemented here or
  • in a different repository belonging to https://github.com/JuliaCollections or
  • should never be implemented and it should be replaced by simple Dict and keys should be either lowercased or uppercased "manually".

Kind regards
