As [https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-
developers/Y51CKkqq6Ng/discussion discussed on django-developers], Python
deprecated usage of flags not at the start of a regular expression, e.g.
'CaseInsensitive(?i)' instead of '(?i)CaseInsensitive'. A new solution
would be required to support these flags in Django, however, since case-
insensitive URLs aren't a good practice and the other flags don't have
value in urlpatterns, support for this will be removed. An alternative
solution for those wanting the functionality is to write a 404 handler to
look for uppercase characters and redirect to a lowercase equivalent.
