Clearly we need more testing. Currently `data:text/xml,<?xml-STYLESHEET href="data:text/css,test{background:lime}"?><test/>` is not green in browsers. But `data:text/xml,<?xml-stylesheet href="data:text/css,test{background:lime}"?><test/>` is.

Similarly, `data:text/xml,<?xml-stylesheet HREF="data:text/css,test{background:lime}"?><test/>` is not green.

So I think case-sensitive and case-sensitive comparisons are the way to go, except perhaps for `<?xml` if tests prove otherwise there.
