JDBC driver converts search string patterns to lowercase

Short Description
JDBC driver converts search string patterns to lowercase

Long Description
The metadata class of the Postgresql 7.1 JDBC driver converts search string patterns to all lowercase. This means that if I want to use metadata.getColumns(null,null,tableName,"%") for example, the tableName will be converted to all lowercase, and will not match if my table names have any capital letters. I tried quoting the table names, but that didn't work either. I see no reason for the names to be converted to lower case, and it is extremely inconvenient to code a work-around for this.
