In the absence of guidance to the contrary I think it's safe to pick a convention and document it. As noted earlier, I can't find anything in the references that addresses key case, either.

Scott,

My own reading (RFC4627) is that the key in a JSON object is Unicode, but it says nothing about case sensitivity.  Unless there are aspects of Unicode I don't understand (quite possible), I imagine then it's up to the application to decide (and specify) whether key searches within an object are case-sensitive.

The working copies of our drafts all use lowercase now, so at least they're consistent.  The question before us, then, is whether we need to say we expect matching to be case-sensitive, since RFC4627 is (perhaps deliberately) ambiguous.
