Strangely and/or luckily, I had assumed that all parsing of keywords was
done in a case insensitive manner and I've never had a problem.  If this
is actually not the case, I would strongly support making the changes
you propose.  Unless I misunderstood, of course!

#+language and case

[Rasmus]

Hi,

I just pushed a patch (d07fafed4af9d22044870ae909f0bb82b1412eb6) that
makes the ox-html insensitive to the usage of case of the #+language
keyword value.

I realize this might be design, as ox-latex is done in the same way.  But
I don’t see any reason for Org to have an opinion on the case of language,
especially since e.g. blocks are not case-sensitive.  Should I also make
ox-latex and other backends insensitive to case or maybe just remove the
aforementioned commit?

Indeed. Value is case insensitive. The change can be propagated to other
back-ends. Thank you for catching it.
