 Neither do I. A bookmarking service converting to uppercase is not a valid
 reason to change it. The RFC quoted does recommend they be provided as
 uppercase, however lowercase is perfectly acceptable as well.

 I don't think any processing overhead is worth it here honestly.

 Given the 3 years and no traction, I'd suggest this be best implemented as
 a plugin for those that care.
