It's not clear what you mean.
We already have a place to store upper- and lower- case variants. What
I'm proposing is to use the CANONICALIZE slot as a place to store the
case-folding mapping. If this would mess up Emacs' case-preserving
replace, then I think that would just mean that case-preserving replace
is broken. There is no such case as "canonicalize"--you can't say, "Oh,
this string is in the canonical case, so when I want to replace it with
this other string in canonical case". A case-preserving replace should
only consult the upper- and lower-case slots (and perhaps the title-case
slot if it existed).
