This option could also accept --smart-case and --ignore-case options with would allow to case independent searches.
@hauleth Why doesn't the -F/--fixed-literals flag, which is named after the corresponding flag in grep, work for your use case?
Oh, I've must missed that option. Sorry for this fuss.
I would suggest to add this to the FAQ or to add a section for it in the user guide because it's pretty hard to find in the user guide right now when you don't know the name of the option already.
