Hi Brent,
I wonder whether we should add a negative test case, in which lowercasing/uppercasing on the originals would differ but String.equalsIgnoreCase() returns true.

Hi,
Please review my doc/spec change (no code) for 8138824. Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8138824 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bchristi/8138824/webrev.0/ Specdiff: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~bchristi/8138824/specdiff.0/overview-summary.html
This change addresses a longstanding mismatch between spec and implementation, clarifies comparison methods which do not account for locale, and adds references to the locale-aware java.text.Collator. Thanks, -Brent
