Comment (by Marten Kenbeek):
The other converters accept upper- and lowercase, but they are not treated
the same in general. E.g. DetailView does a case-sensitive lookup for the
slug, so `/some-slug/` and `/Some-Slug/` do not refer to the same database
object.
You can quite easily override the UUID converter project-wide to accept
upper- and lowercase UUIDs:
{{{
class CaseInsensitiveUUIDConverter(UUIDConverter):
regex = '[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-
fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}'
register_converter(CaseInsensitiveUUIDConverter, 'uuid')
}}}
