That's fine but that isn't currently the behaviour anywhere in Koha. Everything
(except passwords) is case insensitive because the database does case
insensitive searching. 

If you wanted to make the batch item modification tool case sensitive then this
behaviour needs to be made consistent everywhere in Koha. For example,
circulation - issuing with the barcode 'abcde' would check out the same item as
issuing with the barcode 'abcDE'.

I think while the behaviour in Koha is not case sensitive, this patch is still
valid and fixes the current problem.
