CharacterCasing.UPPER not working for TextItem in a ToolStrip

I'm using CharacterCasing.UPPER on a variety of fields and forms where it is working fine. But when I set that attribute on a TextItem and put that item on a ToolStrip using ToolStrip.addFormItem() I can still type lowercase letters into the TextItem. I've verified using the developer console that the setting is being stored correctly. Here is the TextItem definition from the console.

Evaluator: result of 'isc_DynamicForm_5.items[0]' (1ms):
TextItem{eventParent: [DynamicForm ID:isc_DynamicForm_5],
containerWidget: [DynamicForm ID:isc_DynamicForm_5],
form: [DynamicForm ID:isc_DynamicForm_5],
name: "HONO",
title: "PO number",
editorType: "TextItem",
characterCasing: "upper",
wrapTitle: false,
icons: Array[1],
ID: "isc_TextItem_6",
hasFocus: false,
}

This could happen if other event handlers on the item interfered. Can you cut this down to a test case and verify the behavior?

Ah, yes. I should have spotted that. We're using a keyPressHandler on that field in order to capture the user pressing the Enter key to trigger some processing. Is there a better way to do that? I don't see anything similar to setSaveOnEnter() for a ToolStrip.

Here is the keyPressHandler. Is there something we could do there to force uppercase?

searchItem.addKeyPressHandler(new KeyPressHandler() {				
	@Override
	public void onKeyPress(KeyPressEvent event) {
		
		if ("Enter".equals(event.getKeyName()))
				triggerSearch();
	}
});

This is fixed in the next nightly (01/29). The keypress handler is called prior to any filtering or casing changes.
