      The forcing of lowercase letters in the username has just cropped up in 1.8. Previous versions allowed uppercase letters in the username. Is there a reason for this change? This can cause problems with external authentication for databases, SIS, LDAP and HRMS. This is a major change and there is no documentation on this.
      Maybe I missed something?!
