      Summary

      When working with Custom Fields displayed the JIRA issues macro, Confluence will ignore the case of the fields as they're input into Confluence.

      Steps to Reproduce
      1. In JIRA, create a custom field, and call it "RN Summary"
      2. In Confluence, create a page, and insert the JIRA Issues Macro
      3. Under "Display Options" select "Table"
      4. Under "Display Options" add the Custom Field to the "Columns to Display" section
      5. Save the page, and view the table
      Expected Result

      The column header is shown matching the case in JIRA - in this case, "RN Summary"

      Actual Result

      The column header is displayed using capitalisation. Inspecting the header column reveals the following inline style applied to all of the header columns in the table:

      style="text-align: left; text-transform: capitalize;"
      

      Additionally, the text inside the header column is lower case.

            Barring whatever the internal technical reason of Atlassian, data once entered in JIRA should appear the same way in Confluence and vice versa. I strongly believe this is the utmost MINIMUM requirement of any software and the UNDERLYING principle of the MVC architecture that we all should follow.

            Kindly PRIORITIZE this issue and update.
