 Replying to [comment:14 dd32]:
 > Another option which we have, is to force the hostname in `home` and
 `site_url` being lower-case, which makes a lot of sense to me.
 Capitalizing the domain adds no benefit, as hostnames are inherently
 lower-case and most browsers treat them as such.

 +1 for this.
