Almost all arguments of command-line options of all PostgreSQL tools are 
case-sensitive.  Consider the initdb -U option for example.  By pointing 
out a couple of specific cases, wouldn't we also create more confusion

(I'm not sure about the case-sensitivity of the locale options.  That 
could be OS-dependent.)
