Said it before - I don't see this as a limitation & thus I don't 'need it removed'. You do.

In terms of lousy design, I've already indicated that a view should be sufficient to manage the case difference. If you & your organization needs a different view for each possible 'upper case' search, then - based on apparent similarity with other projects I've seen - I'm not convinced there is a design behind this as much as a growth.
