There is no need to single our a section just because nowadays it
contains underscores so that we would convert them to dashes, do it for
all sections, so that if in the future we get underscores in them, then
it wild be dash/underscore "insensitive".

In fact, this would be a strcasecmp_() routine, i.e. one that would, in
addition to being case insensitive, also consider - and _ the same
character.
