The fix mentioned there (lowercase in the backend script) works, but I think it would be more helpful if pdns did the lowercasing.

We should check what remotebackend does too.

Yeah, implementing the same logic in each backend is not a good idea.

Some backend implementations are actually using the case sensitive version of the query.
