This all looks very nice.

Upon reading your cover letter, I wondered if somebody would ever want case-sensitive "--grep", but case-insensitive pickaxe (or vice versa). However, you are not adding case-insensitivity to -G/-S, but rather applying it more consistently. So I think that ship has already sailed anyway (and even if it did not, I think applying "-i" everywhere makes the interface simpler for the common cases, so the loss of flexibility may be worth it).
