Case-sensitive feature tag?

[theraot]

I've been looking for a way to check if the game is running in a case-sensitive OS. Right now I can check against Windows, I also read that recent versions of macOS are not case sensitive, but I do not know which nor how how to check. Yet, if in the future more platforms are supported (should I worry about console support from W4Games?), I suppose I'd need to consider each scenario. I'd rather have a central way to check. Thus, does it make sense to add case-sensitive feature tag to Godot, or what would a better way to handle this?

Does this actually make sense to be a feature tag, or should it be an OS singleton method such as OS.is_filesystem_case_sensitive()?

Remember that a disk may have multiple partitions with multiple case-sensitive statuses, although it's very unlikely that several partitions for the same OS are configured differently on this aspect.

Windows can also make certain folders case-sensitive, as documented in Project organization.

That mostly what I was asking: does it make sense as a feature tag or something else? - Yes, I would like a method on the OS class, adding it to DirAccess did also cross my mind.

What didn't cross my mind is that it might differ from partition to partition. Now I have less of an idea of how to check.

With godotengine/godot#82957 merged, I think this discussion doesn't serve any purpose anymore. Closing.
