Case insensitive queries supported?

[aaron saunders]

in mongodb I can do something like this

http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operators/

        data : {
            per_page : 100,
            //q:$.friendSearchBar.value,
            where : {
                "username" : {
                    "$regex" : $.addAFriendSearchBar.value,
                    "$options" : 'i'
                }
            }
        },

but it is not working in ACS?

The current mongodb case insensitive query doesn't use index. That's why we don't support it yet. Also we only support regex with a prefix matching. 

But for username , you can use users/search.json which supports case insensitive search
