As an alternative to a new configuration option, I think this could also be
addressed by the "unified" changeset author-mapping patch I've proposed in
http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/10640#comment:7

If the specific subversion username(s) that need lowercasing are known, the
patch could be used as-is to translate those names ("IAN = ian").  Or the
usernames coming from Subversion could all be lowercased by plugging in a
custom IChangesetUserMapper component for the installation.

Sorry for the shameless plug :-)
