It might make sense to make the default depend on the fs type. For example, make FAT32 use "winnt" and FAT12/16 use "mixed". That would give maximum interoperability I think.
I'm presuming that the versions of win95 that supported FAT32 also supported the mixed case bits, though I haven't tested that.
