Ipad auto-capitalization of username

[McDermott, Michael]

Hello List,
I haven't seen anything on the user list about this, but our Ipad/Iphone
users are complaining that "Shib" capitalizes their case sensitive username
when they login and wonder how to "fix" Shib.

Clearly this is a client issue, but the "fix" I've found is to add the html
element that directs clients not to auto capitalize.
In the login.jsp, change the input field from something like:
<input name="j_username" type="text"  />
to
<input name="j_username" type="text" autocapitalize="off"  />

I'm wondering if others are doing the same thing, and if there are
any problems with this approach.  If not, then perhaps it could be added in
a future release of the IdP.
