In reference to the following line in the 7.2 Patch notes:

Resolved Issues:
- An issue with the glamour dresser wherein the search function was erroneously case-sensitive.


Date & Time: 30/3/25 10:25am UTC
Frequency: Always
World name: Famfrit
Character name: non-character specific, but i.e. Misaki Cato
Housing: Inn rooms/GC Squadron Rooms
Steps:
1. Open Glamour Dresser
2. Open Filter window
3. Search for an item in the glamour dresser preserving the upper case character in the item name (EN). I.e., I have quite a few of the "Makai ..." items obtainable from the Disreputable Priest at Wolves Den.
3a. Searching for "Makai" (without quotation marks) results in "No matching items found"
3b. Searching instead for "makai" results in items found...

Prior to the fix in 7.2; searching for Makai would return expected items; but "makai" wouldn't. So it looks like this isn't truly case insensitivity search. All variations of capitialisation of "Makai" should match "Makai Markswoman's Fingerless Gloves" (so for example, "makai", "mAKAI", "Makai", "MAKAI", "maKai" should all match.

This appears to be a regression since searches that used to work, no longer do.

I've tested myself on a Windows 11 PC and a Playstation 5 console (original Disc version; with Keyboard and Mouse attached, with FFXIV installed as a PS5 game), with language both set to English.
