Question

I discovered that the Ref-By Link of a topic doesn't execute a casesensitive search. Topic with and without WikiWords are found, for example "TeamLeader" and "Teamleader". If the search would be casesensitve only topics with links ("TeamLeader") were found.

Answer

This is actually spec, or lazy implementation if you will ;-). The reason for case insensitive search are links defined with double square brackets, i.e. =[[team leader]]=, [[Team Leader]] and [[TeamLeader]], all point to the same TeamLeader topic. It is better to have too many hits then missing some.
