Well, AFAIK the issue is that everything *is already upper-case*.
Your SGML declaration (or the RCS, which you get by default) probably
says NAMECASE GENERAL YES, meaning that jade should treat lower-case
names in input as if they were in upper case.

If the sources are consistent in the use of case, you might be able to
fix things by frobbing this setting in the declaration - but you may be
giving yourself as big a problem if the source is inconsistent, since
you will get errors due to "Table" now being different to "table", for
example.
