Well the problem with the automatic detection is it could lead to
problems (at least an rdiff-backup crash) if filesystems mounted
inside the source directory were case sensitive, or if later on a case
sensitive directory were backed up. These situations aren't
particularly pathological, so it seems by default rdiff-backup
shouldn't crash on them.
