Not a solution to this problem, but if your authentication backend is  
not case sensitive, it makes sense to convert every username upon  
login to lower case to prevent situations like this from the start  
(Horde is case sensitive as you've already noticed). See the example  
in 'horde/config/hooks.php.dist' (the USERNAME HOOK).
