Comment (by DD32):

 Personally I think it should be case insensitive usernames, which is how
 the core WP code currently operates (as the DB layer is case
 insensitive).[[BR]]
 Passwords are still case sensitive as md5's are case sensitive.

 I've attached a patch which cleans up the wp_login function, The empty
 password code was removed as thats handled in the login form anyway.

 I'll also attach one which has case sensitive user logins, and displays
 the correct error.
