No, it is not supported except on platforms that do not have
case-sensitive file systems.  It is also not clear to me how it would
work when used in a directory that contains filenames such as:

   readme
   README
   Readme.1st

If you were to enter 'r' at the filename prompt and then press tab,
what do you expect to happen?  Should it expand to "readme" and also
show all possible completions in the popup window?  If so, what would
be the subsequent steps to get the completion to produce "Readme.1st"?

Thanks,
