Given our experiences with case insensitivity in Gforth, I suggest
storing the word in the original form in the dictionary: There are
good uses for the original form of the name, and I think that's even
truer for your case.  Then use a permutation insensitive comparison; I
guess you know that trying out all permutations is much less efficient
in many cases than some other approaches.

Your lack of arguments is compelling.
