Yes, but then that's their problem, not yours. If they upload invalid
XML, then that's their fault.

XML is supposed to be case-sensitive. If their software thinks
otherwise, then their software is wrong.

If you still want to work around this, then either use the event-driven
XML functions which allow you to ignore case, or build your own XML
parser (which isn't actually that hard).
