It doesn't seem to me there is much to marshal in the
OBJECT_ATTRIBUTES structure apart from the security descriptor, so I'm
not sure what you plan to do. Also I'm not convinced at all that you
can avoid making the namespace know about case sensitivity; if you
allow the caller to specify it, you can create names that differ only
in case which will break callers that do case insensitive lookups.
