This one line patch ignores case in bug queries when using "string" search fields for short_desc, long_desc, bug_file_loc, and status_whiteboard. I will submit the patch as an attachment.

Whoops, the patch had one other change: A more descriptive, if less humorous, message concerning no bugs found.

I don't want to change the status of this bug, but it is a duplicate of bug #2594, which is listed as priority P1. This patch, while perhaps not fullfiling that bug completely, would provide a 90% solution.

After reviewing several other open Bugzilla bugs, I have modified my patch to allow the following types of searches for summary, description, ...: regular expression not ( regular expression ) case-insensitive substring case sensitive substring This patch follows this comment and should provide a solution to this bug, bug #2954, and the bug about "not regexp".

Cool! I've hacked on this a bit (mostly just fixing bugs that were always there, like not remembering any of these strings in memorized queries) and have checked it in. Thanks!
