Comment(by crashutah):

 The problem is that WordPress hasn't given much thought to the users I
 think because most WordPress users don't have people creating lots of
 accounts.  Some sort of BuddyPress solution to allow uppercase would be
 great.

 The other solution I’ve considered is to have some javascript function
 that will check the username to make sure 1. it’s available 2. that it’s
 lowercase and 3. Any other validation. At least a notification before they
 click submit would be a sufficient user experience.  Certainly could be
 done as a plugin or theme, but would be a nice part of the core.
