Comment:
This is not a documented usage, however it doesn't work only on MySQL, so
IMO we can fix this for consistency. MySQL handles strings used in `JSON`
context using the `utf8mb4_bin` binary collation, that's why comparison
of JSON values is case-sensitive and we need to use
`CaseInsensitiveMixin`. We can fix this be registering a custom case-
insensitive lookup for `JSONField`, e.g.
{{{
class JSONFieldIContains(CaseInsensitiveMixin, lookups.IContains):
pass
JSONField.register_lookup(JSONFieldIContains)
}}}
I don't think it makes sense to do the same for `__istartswith`,
`iendswith`, and `__iexact`.
