Actually there's now a class, chardataeffect.py, which does all the grunt work of traversing the tree of text elements and passing all chardata bits in proper order as well as the newline and newpar flags to the process_chardata method. So you can create a new text effect very easily, just by providing your own process_chardata in a derived class.

Switching to serious mode - does the case folding depend on locale?

Python documentation claims that it does. I didn't test - but I just used Python's standard lower() and upper() methods.
