Sorting renaming (lowercased the, or words)

Recently I've noticed that whenever I get movies that have words like the, or, and in them, these words become lowercase. So for example instead of "The Chronicles of Narnia - The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010)" you get a folder named "the Chronicles of Narnia - the Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010)". This only happens when Generic Sorting is enabled.

The movie sorting is enabled with the following sort string: %title (%y).
Running 0.6.8 on Windows 7 x64.

I've looked around the options but nothing indicates where I can enable or disable that.

Is there something I have overlooked?

The "uppercasing" method misfires.
It's supposed to uppercase the initial letters of al words, except "the", "a", .etc.
Only there's one more exception, when those lowercase words appear at the start...
I'll check what can be done.
BTW: I think the whole idea is a mistake, it's actually better to leave the titles untouched,
but then again: posters often make a mess of titles.

Thanks for the reply.
Why not make a switch? I for one prefer everything in Uppercase. I am sure others like the way it is now.

Yeah, like we don't have enough of those.
If you want something special, write a user script.
