[Gpe-list] Case-insensitive category names

[Graham Cobb]

I am looking into fixing the bug with syncing categories.  I need to translate 
the category names provided from Opensync into the numbers used in GPE.  I am 
looking at adding a new function to libgpepimc to lookup categories by name:

gint *gpe_pim_category_id (gchar name)

analogous to the existing: const gchar *gpe_pim_category_name (gint id)

I am thinking of making the lookup case-independent as I think it will be 
confusing to users to have two categories which differ only in case and I 
think it likely that the case used on a different system may not be exactly 
the same.  For example, the way that the Maemo keyboard works category names 
created there will tend to be in "sentence case" (a single initial capital 
letter with lower case for the rest) but categories in Outlook tend to be 
in "title case" (an initial capital for each word of the category name). 

I am also thinking of changing gpe_pim_category_new and 
gpe_pim_category_rename to do a lookup first so they can reject attempts to 
create categories which differ only in case.  

Does anyone have any comment on these changes?  I am not planning to change 
the categories UI.
