This is probably why I was so frustrated - I thought that there should be an equivalent in PostgreSQL.
I was going mad trying all of these from my searches.

I want to index on a REGEXP_REPLACE() - I thought using lower -> upper would be a good test.
I could always have used another REGEXP_REPLACE() for my testing, but I then became "obsessed" with the idea of using
REGEXP_REPLACE()as a substitute for UPPER() - kind of an obfuscated code competition with myself! :-)
Again, thanks for your input.
