You should also suggest that people do this testing on a completely
unimportant filesystem (i.e. not containing any files they intend to
ever access again), since they could get stuck with this:

Yes, NTFS supports case sensitive handling, but NO, there isn't anything
in Windows that uses it, and lots of things that go out of their way to
do it wrong.
YMMV
