Public bug reported:

1) control-B to bring up the Browse Cards menu
2) start typing into the text field to bring up some results
3) click on 'Question' heading to sort by question

what should happen:
sort alphabetically the questions, usually words that contain the text what you 
are looking for

what does happen:
sorts alphabetically BUT the capital letters come first, as they have a lower 
numeric value in ascii (and probably unicode).

rationale:
mnemosyne primarily deals with words, and when we're sorting words, as human 
beings, we shouldn't have to care how they are represented in ascii/unicode, 
only the alphabetical ordering.

possible solution: 
throw a 'tolower' in the mix somewhere to make case not matter on sort

mnemosyne: 
  Installed: 2.4-0.1
  Candidate: 2.4-0.1

ubuntu: 18.04 LTS bionic

** Affects: mnemosyne (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
