Global Search case sensitivity behaviour differs from local search #1277

What Happened?

Performed a (case insensitive) global search for the phrase "Replace All"; the sidebar indicated there was a hit in a certain file but searching that file case-insensitive locally gave no results. It was found that the file contained the phrase "Replace all".

This is because local search ignores the case sensitivity setting if a mixed case search term is used. This behaviour is not reproduced in global search.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a file containing the phrase (e.g.) "Replace all".
  2. Globally search for "Replace All" - a hit is shown
  3. Locally search for "Replace All" - there are no hits.

Expected Behavior

When a hit is shown by global search it should also be found by local search.
