I was thinking to implement MacFileDirectory >> isCaseSensitive so that it keeps a class side variable with the boolean. The getter can be lazy, and in nil, you can write a dummy file, and check. But even if you do this, we still have a problem, becuase right now FileDirectory default is answering the unix one....and unix is always case-sensitive, so we shouldn't change that. So first we need to modify so that we can use the MacFileDirectory, and then how to modify it so that it can support both case sensitive, and insensitive.

But you are the leader of the community. When you say: "I do not think that we can build something on simpleMorphic, what we can do is look at the kernel and see how the changes can be applied to Morphic", it really means that it should better not be done. It means "I think it can't be done, don't waste your time". If, instead of that, you say "I can't help, but feel free to go ahead", the reaction of the community will be completely different.
