----------------------------------------

[~colin_mjj] thanks a lot for taking care of this, would it be possible for you to add some user docs to this, as in how would an integration/ plugin use it? Thanks!

> With more and more components relying on sentry for authorization, it really makes sense to have the case-sensitivity configurable. We can keep the current behavior as default. However, for use cases like Kafka, it makes sense to have authorizable names case sensitive. For instance, a topic resource in Kafka can have case sensitive values, like, topic1 and TOPIC1 are two completely different valid topic resource instances.
