On the other hand, these two MUST be treated as different by
default:

    git clone https://github.com/GIT/GIT (differences outside host part)
    git clone git@github.com:GIT/GIT     (differences outside host part)

This is one of the more obvious examples I would think as the protocol is
different.

Oh, I should have been more careful; I did not think Lars meant
git@GitHub.com should somehow match https://github.com but a more
obvious "git@github.com:GIT/GIT and git@GitHub.com:git/git behave
the same", and I thought everybody who read it understood the
example as such.

What about:

     git clone git@example.com:git/git     (differences outside host part)
     git clone git@example.com:GIT/GIT     (differences outside host part)

If the host has a filesystem which respects capitalization, these may be
two different repositories.

That is what I meant.  Thanks for clarification.
