Some interfaces in the client-side protection library, like
pr_CreateUser, pr_CreateGroup, and pr_SNameToId, unconditionally
downcase their arguments, which prevents them from being constified.
Other interfaces, like pr_AddToGroup and pr_RemoveUserFromGroup, do
not do so. Can anyone explain the reason for this inconsistency? It
would make more sense to me if these interfaces either all did
case-folding, or all did not.
