Thanks! I haven't yet taken the time to go through the 'becoming 
a contributor' steps, when I have the time I'll do that. In this 
case, I'd want to start by validating with the library designers 
that the approach makes sense. It by-passes what appears to a 
basic primitive, std.uni.toCaser. There may be reasons this is 
not desirable.
