[rules-users] case in-sensitive string comparison?

We have a requirement to display data as stored (with the right casing) but
for evaluation purposes strings should be compared case in-sensitive. We
have several hundred rules touching these particular strings and would
really like to avoid doing eval( x != null && x.equalsIngoreCase(y) )
everywhere. Is there anywhere in drools that we could configure to make
string matching case in-sensitive?

Since we have to display the data with casing elsewhere, putting
x.toLowerCase() in all our getter methods doesn't seem to be an option.
