Hello,

I'm using django-taggit in a project right now and I'm loving it. It's a great package, so thanks for making it available and keeping it updated!

One question: I'm trying to set up a case-intensive tagging, and in searching around for others who have tried this, I came across this fork from shacker that purports to force lowercase tagging everywhere. From those docs:

If you want to enforce lowercase tags everywhere (recommended, to avoid
ending up with tags 'Music' and 'music' which are functionally identical
but show up in different taxonomies), add to settings.py:

``TAGGIT_FORCE_LOWERCASE = True``

Any chance these changes have been or will be folded in to the actively developed django-taggit package? Shacker hasn't updated their django-taggit GitHub repo in 3 years. 

If not, are there any strategies you're reccomend to implemting django-taggit in a case insensitive way?

Thanks!
John

I noticed on GitHub that shacker posted on this with issue #70, and then attempted to fold in his forked changes in #98 and it looks like these weren't accepted. I'm guessing that means that
TAGGIT_FORCE_LOWERCASE = True is not available in the master version of django-taggit?
