Because GHCi commands start with a colon, it frequently happens to me that
my shift key is still down and I accidentally type :R instead of :r, which
gives an error. I'm not sure how common this is, but I've seen at least
one more person do it.
As it seems unlikely that people define commands that differ only by case,
it might be an option to disregard the case altogether when parsing the
commands.
