This is correct - no way to autofill both versions, and the autofilling sometimes gets you the wrong thing. This we can fix easily enough.

This bug has nothing to do with Firefox developers deciding we hate case-sensitive passwords - you can read the entire rationale in bug 447788. Some sites were "broken" before that change, and that change fixed them. Now other sites are broken, and we should fix those too.
