I found that performing a text search in the main screen is performed without
case sensitivity while the "follow TCP stream" dialog perform with case
sensitivity. I would expect the case sensitivity mode of the two searches to be
the same by default but they aren't.
Current behavior: a user can find some text using search in the main screen, do
a "follow TCP stream" on the packet containing the search data and do a search
in that dialog with the same search data but this time nothing is found (as the
case doesn't match) leaving the user a bit puzzled.
Wouldn't it be nice to allow the user to select the case sensitivity mode of a
search in the 'follow TCP stream' dialog, and make the default setting the same
as with the search in the main screen?
