Thanks for the feedback. I was thinking it would be easier to just use some 
javascript on the login page to force the user id to lower case. But this would 
help logins not going using the login page.

For what it's worth, we do normalize the principal name to whatever is
stored in the directory.  While all CAS clients ought to consider the
principal name in a case insensitive fashion, we felt it was better to
provide a canonical name from the system of record (our LDAP
directory) just in case.  We use a custom
CredentialsToPrincipalResolver for this purpose, but I think there's a
decent case to be made for providing this capability out of the box.
Anyone else have an opinion about that?
