To compound this problem, there is no warning given to the customer other than the "Please make sure you properly filled in all the required fields!" type generic message.

This will stop me from updating to 4.1.11

What would happen to customers that already had uppercase letters in usernames?

Uppercase AND lowercase AND symbols ARE A PART OF STRONG SECURITY!!!!!!
Why not just have all users log in as user and all admins log in as admin
