Comment:
At least fix this with the default user model in 1.5 and above. This is
literally the only framework I can easily find that has case-sensitive
usernames. No, that doesn't mean this is the correct path, but doing
things so counter-intuitively in python makes my head hurt.
Adrian - if you don't have time, at least keep this open for someone else
to submit a patch - I'm certain one of us can put together something.
It's quite annoying to have to use a custom authentication backend for
something so dead simple in concept - this should be part of Django.
