AEM Versioning - Case sensitivity leads to multiple assets

Question

Hi All,
 
I noticed a weird issue in AEM not sure if its a bug or not.
So when you upload an asset in AEM like below  -

The filename is displayed as "Customer Runbook.pdf" (highlighted in yellow)When you add a title to the asset and view it again it shows as below -

Notice how the filename has been modified to uppercase "CUSTOMER RUNBOOK.PDF"
When a user grabs this filename and tries to upload an asset with the same name, AEM creates a new asset rather than a version thus differentiating between assets (abc.pdf vs ABC.PDF - While the local machine does not do so!)

This creates an issue as the authors are creating assets with different case sensitive file names rather than versions!You can still grab the correct filename from the URL but that becomes tricky when you have character encoding for space (%20) and other characters.Seems like a silly question maybe but this uppercasing the filename when title is added will be a valid behavior? If so then how should we point the authors to the correct case sensitive filename besides URL which is susceptible to character encoding?

Hello @rohan_garg

The issue is due to a CSS class

When a title is availble, the image name is rendered via div "foundation-collection-item-subtitle". The class associated is tranformin text to upper-class.

Please raise an Adobe ticket explaining the use-case. Meanwhile, you can probably override this class.
