Expected behavior When you have one value that begins with a lowercase letter, and you sort on a column, that lowercase value should still be properly alphabetized with the rest of the values.

Actual behavior The lowercase letters come in at the bottom of the sorting, giving you all capital letters first, then all lowercase letters, in alphabetical order. So A-Z will appear before a-z, which defeats the purpose of alphabetical sorting. I created a basic snippet showing exactly this behavior. This is something that people have been asking about for years, and it's a simple enough fix to implement, just by doing null/undefined checks and calling String.prototype.toLowerCase or toUpperCase on the values being sorted. Every time we update our project I have to go in and manually do this, but it should be default functionality.

You can see the lowercase values here, and sort on the Name column and see that the fields starting with lowercase letters come after all fields starting with uppercase letters.
