Not searchable from github name

[NotTheEconomist]

I'm adsmith on Keybase, and have a proven github.com association with this account (NotTheEconomist). For some reason I'm getting the following results from the console

So it seems to be an issue possibly with my CamelCase username. Any thoughts?

[zQueal]

Currently, you cannot search via service identifiers. For example, my Keybase username is zQueal as well as my Github username. This has been suggested before, and it most certainly makes sense. But I doubt we'll see it in the node version. Hopefully it'll make it to the Go version.

@zQueal Thanks for the comment, but I don't think that's true. Please note keybase user harper who I have just searched here by his (different) github ID

That should be enough to show that you can search by the github:// identifier. I also used the web://, and reddit:// identifier's in my original issue post, as well as demonstrating a different user searching by both keybase id max and keybase id github://maxtaco

[zQueal]

Very cool! I had no idea that this was implemented. Unfortunately the only test case I have is myself, in which I have all the same usernames. So there really is no test case. If this is the case, and this is an implemented feature, then it's very strange you're unable to query your Github username. I've properly identified you in the Keybase command line and everything seems to be in order. Nice find.

This is likely a problem with mistaken sensitivity to caps

[CodingAnarchy]

Could this be related to the issue I was seeing in the API user lookup (#1341)? There I was having the same problem of certain users being able to be found and others being missed. I also have caps in my GitHub username - that could be the source of the problem.

[maxtaco]

Yeah, I'm guessing it's caps. Can't look into it much today, but hope to soon.
