sh404sef has an option that allows for both upper and lowercase alias in the url.

I wasn't sure if that can be done for the links to the RSFORM Pro, which is mostly what I need this for.

I was able to fill in an alias and it worked which is great. However, the alias gets translated to all lower case.

Any suggestions to be able to keep the alias case sensitive? Thanks!
