Even if we don't fix all uses of (?to)(lower\|upper) in the source tree, I think it's important that codec and locale lookup work properly when the current locale defines non-latin case folding for latin characters. Here is a patch. Perhaps also the str type should grow ascii_lower() and ascii_upper() methods, since many cases of using lower() and upper() actually assume ascii semantics (e.g. for parsing of HTTP or SMTP headers).
