projects and tags are case sensitive

[Brian Murray]

revision 205 of the main branch

Using the '--status' filter requires you to use the right case for the status - you have to use 'New' and not 'new'. It should be possible to use either one. I'm guess the same thing is true for importance and it shouldn't be either.

[Markus Korn (thekorn)]

<thekorn> currently all string options are case sensitive,
<thekorn> bdmurray, do you thing we should change all of them, or just importance/status
<bdmurray> thekorn: I'm not certain about all of them because of launchpad. Can you have tags like 'foo' and 'Foo'? Projects too?
<thekorn> bdmurray, projects are just lowercase
<thekorn> and tags are also lowercase
<bdmurray> okay, then doing everything sounds good
<bdmurray> it'll help with reporter and lastcomment user too
<thekorn> ok

I'll try to find a solution for bug{helper,numbers} (maybe also buginfo) which does not change tons of code.

First idea, without looking at the code is hooking in OptionParser.

The importance and status bit of this has been fixed in revision 223, it'd still be good to look at projects and tags though.
