You have nothing to change. If you are case-sensitive, then your keys 
are automatically both ASCII and UTF-8. I'm speaking about charset only 
when case matters (because case depends on charset).

So I mean that if you want to be case unsensitive, then you must be case 
unsensitive in the ASCII sense, not UTF-8, to be compatible with the 
Collection class, and because UTF-8 case support is slow as hell.
