I ran across that already but figured it's a bit harsh for all of emacs 
or org-mode, i.e. I am worried about unintended side-effects.

The trouble I'm having stems from the fact that org-contact search is 
(AFAICT) an agenda search, which is case insensitive in my setup. So why 
is org contacts case sensitive in the first place?

Thanks anyway, I'll dig deeper some time (but probably not today).

Cheers,

Simon
