Auto-capitalization

Can we get rid of auto-capitalization in the find bar? It really screws with the regex.
For example, I would use \d (same as [0-9]) a lot, but I can't since it's always converted to \D (same as [^0-9]).

Let me think about what it would break. Probably have to be an advanced option.

Case sensitive filters should
not be the default for sure.
The current force uppercase was probably put in to fix \.exe is not the same as \.EXE type problems.

I'm not saying the filters have to be case sensitive, I'm saying the RegEx has to be. They're two seperate things. (And the filter sensitivity should be configurable from the RegEx parser.)

Give me a concrete reason why it needs to be case sensitive. I've never needed it but, typically my needs are simple.

Well, as I said. \d should be different from \D.
I think d and D should be treated the same though.

Hmm. Then I'd have to write a parser that can distinquish between just text and RE and only upcase the text. I'll look at the library I use. I do believe here are flags to set.
