The search box would be even more useful if it would match text non-casesensitively.

Log:
  [FIXED JENKINS-850] search box should match non-casesensitively.
      


      The real fix was provided in pull request #376 by lvotypko and vjuranek.
This commit just corrects a method name mix up, removes redundant
imports and adds the right JIRA ticket number.

      Still not working for me in Jenkins 1.462, which was release on 4/30/12 (well after the fix was committed).

      It seems to be platform/environment depended:
Jenkins ver. 1.464
Linux Ubuntu 12.04, Chromium 18.0.1025.151, search is case insensitive.
Mac OS X 10.7.3 a Chrome Version 19.0.1084.46, search is case sensitive.

      Interesting that if you enter a full job name, it will match it even if the case is different (case insensitive).  If you enter a substring of a job name, however, it will only return case sensitive results.  We're currently on 1.509.4.

      This appears to be default 'case sensitive' in Mac OS with Chrome 45.0.2454.85 (64-bit).  
Jenkins: ver. 1.609.2
      


      Is there a way to set the default to 'case insensitive' globally for all users on your jenkins instance?  
      


      Does anyone see this as low hanging fruit that might be able to get updated in a future build?

      Also pipeline-syntax search on parameters (i.e. build: Project To Build property) are case sensitive ignoring user profile setting:
