Currently, headline matching in `org-link-search' and
`org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link' is case-sensitive.

This is because of different reason - Org export is not able to export
fuzzy links that do not point to a named target:

    (defun org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link (link info &rest pseudo-types)
      "Return LINK destination.
    
    INFO is a plist holding contextual information.
    
    Return value can be an object or an element:
    
    - If LINK path matches a target object (i.e. <<path>>) return it.
    
    - If LINK path exactly matches the name or results affiliated keyword
      (i.e. #+NAME: path or #+RESULTS: name) of an element, return that
      element.
    
    - If LINK path exactly matches any headline name, return that
      element.
    
    - Otherwise, throw an error.
