			Looks like the == ignores case altogether, as shown by the following example:
			> ash print("heeheehee"=="HEEHEEHEE")

			true

			Also, this function does indeed return the player's username, converted to lowercase. Just confirmed that. I'd circumvent the whole map issue by just converting everything to lowercase, using the handy to_lower_case() function. =D Or, alternatively, although this uses more memory, loop over the elements in the map. So...
			foreach i in map {
			if(i==my_name()) {
			// Do stuff here.
			break;
			}
			}
