Maybe we could add a <para> in the Options section before the item list,
along the lines of "be mindful that arguments to options --auth,
--auth-local, --encoding, --locale (and all --lc-* options) are
case-sensitive".
(The point here, I suppose, is that LDAP being an acronym is typically
spelled uppercase, so our use of lowercase is a bit odd.)
Maybe there are other places where this is relevant as well?
