That's issue 6.17 from n1756. I think you can define char_traits to
create a case-insensitive string, so you'd want to get the same hash
values for "foo" as "FOO".
I was thinking of adding overloads for hash_combine and hash_range to
use custom hash functions to deal with this sort of thing, but I thought
it'd be best to stick with your design for the initial version (I might
propose such changes as part of the review submission of the unordered
containers).
