But this issue isn't a problem with mac and Linux...you'd suspect you've got a case-sensitive problem (and check) if something doesn't work! Windows won't show these problems up, so the above is good advice for OXP-ers using Windows.

True, --verify-oxp is very useful for a number of problems that can affect oxps, not for wrong upper/lower case file name snafus.

It's still very good advice for oxp makers, though - whether they develop on macs or linuces, or indeed windows... :)
