[Docutils-develop] languages; all keys lowercase...

[Bill B. <bb...@co...>]

To make a document more readable in raw form, I naturally used :Author: 
as opposed to :author:.

The document failed to parse, as a result.

Looking at the implementation, is there any reason not to use lower() 
when looking up a name in the Languages dictionary/module?

I.e.:

     def visit_admonition(self, node, name):
         self.bodyContent.append('<hr width="50%" />')
         self.bodyContent.append('<b>' + 
self.language.labels[name.lower()] + ':</b><br />\n')

Works for me in either form.  Please show us the exact command line and
input you're using, the output you're seeing, and the OS, Python, and
Docutils versions you're using.

At that point in the code (in the Writer), the name should already be in
lowercase.  That should have been handled by the bibliographic field list
transform.
