As above, would require removal of tolower from array tags func

- Component set to API
I also agree that profile fields should remain in the case they are entered and the search itself be made case-insensitive. People expect their profile information to appear as they enter it. Also, modifying case can change acronyms.
Thanks,

Would require reversal of elgg_strtolower in search/index.php if solution is to have searches caseful.
