Re: IRML questions

No, because as Andre pointed out, the "case-sensitive" attribute in IRML is
about regular expression matching, not property (i.e. header) name. So
whether or not the property is case-sensitive depends on the protocol, but
the matching depends on IRML or rule authors.

Do I really want to use case-sensitive matching if the properties
(i.e. the protocol headers) are case-insensitive? While this would
certainly be possible, would it make much sense?

Yes, this may make sense. Consider for instance Lily's "Cookie" header
example. While the header name is case insensitive, the cookie value may
very well be case sensitive.
