Since I can do:
M-. fubar RET
to find function Fubar, shouldn't
M-. fu SPC
complete the tag to Fubar? It doesn't, since it doesn't appear to
respect tags-case-fold-search.

It seems reasonable in principle, though not terribly important.
Would you like to try to implement it?

I guess it's just a matter of binding completion-ignore-case
appropriately.
But does anyone have any preference over whether binding should be
controlled by a new variable, e.g., tags-case-fold-completion, or by the
existing variable tags-case-fold-search? I would imagine that users
would want to search for tags and complete tags in the same
case-sensitive or case-insensitive manner.
So, I would think it not worth adding another variable. WDYT?

I agree.
