Transform text in Report Type field

wbt
As described on http://www.zotero.org/support/tips_and_tricks,
I can right click on the Title field, and Transform Text-> Title Case (or lower case). I would like to be able to do this on the Report Type field too.

Please and thank you,
WBT

    We'd in general want this in more fields... I'm not sure if there's a compelling reason not to implement that?
  • wbt
    Agreed - could this functionality potentially be added to all non-URI fields?
  • Gracile
    It's planned for the Author field: https://github.com/zotero/zotero/issues/39
    This would not be hard to add to other fields too, as you suggest, but I don't know what the devs think of this.

    I'd be OK with that. Are there any other worthwhile transformations for other fields?

    There is DWL's long-standing and related concern to allow switching lastname and firstname for authors (the order is wrong is some databases).
    Can't think of anything for strictly text transformation, though, no.
