[dwm] What happened to the -i argument?

I just upgraded dmenu from 3.4 to 3.9, and I noticed that the meaning of
the -i argument has changed from "ignore intermediate characters" to
"case-insensitive search". I find the former highly useful, whereas the
latter less so, since most application names are lowercase anyway.

1. what happened?
2. Is there a chance of getting the former mode back again?
