[squid-users] Any news on :acl identname2 ident username case-insensitive

Hi Guys,

I am using Ident3d (30/6/2000) on some windows machines and Squid 2.4
stable7 on a linux server.
Depending on the way a user types his username, this corresponding
string will be given to squid.

How can I make this lookup case insentive?

I thought off:
acl identname2 ident -i wilcoh wilcoz
But the option -i only works with regular expressions.

Regular expressions could work for me:
acl identname3 ident_regex -i /^wilco$/

The above regular expression is not friendly if you are used to word lists.

I did look in the mailarchives, found many questions, but not really the
solution I have been looking for.
