 Priority:  optional  |   Milestone:

 Util_GetHandle is the flesh routine behind such routines
 CCTK_ReductionHandle, CCTK_InterpHandle that return some kind of operation
 handle based on a name. Most other strings in Cactus are case insensitive
 eg the thorn or variable names in CCTK_VarDataPtr, the boundary condition
 names.

 Since the interpolator name that is passed to CCTK_InterpHandle us often a
 user specifiable parameter it might be good to also use case insensitive
 string comparison in Util_GetHandle.

 Aside: Util_GetHandle is not documented but also not declared as private.
