[ale] MySQL case-sensitivity

I've discovered, that MYSQL on Linux is case-sensitive for table names, and it 
is not for Windows.  Undoubtably, this is because of the underlying file 
system.  Right or wrong, we've adopted a standard of ALL UPPER CASE for table 
names.  Unfortunately, I found out that mysqldump seems to generate 
everything with lowercase names, even on Windows.

Is anyone aware of any switches that might help control this cases-sensitivty 
or the dump default?
