Comment (by ollytheninja):
This is clearly a sore point for some people judging by my googling. I
understand that the change would have been hard 8 years ago and is now
near impossible.
Shouldn't there at least be a note added to the documentation, I currently
see nothing about this in the documentation (maybe I missed it?)?
Simply adding "Note: usernames '''are''' case sensitive" to
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/auth/#django.contrib.auth.models.User.username]
would be a step in the right direction.
