The WAN & LAN interfaces are lowercase on first boot, but in the interface configuration they still show as capital. Simply clicking save makes them capital again.

Where exactly are they printed lowercase?
Boot output? The console menu? A dashboard widget? Interface status page? Somewhere else?

Apologies about the lack of detail. All of the above. It seems the default is now lowercase.
I have attached the console menu after clicking save on the WAN configuration.

The interfaces lack a descr tag initially, so they are assumed to be the internal name of the interface ('wan', 'lan'). It isn't specific to WAN/LAN, it would happen to any interface without a descr tag.
This used to be forced to uppercase when that assumption was made, somewhere recently this regressed.
- Priority changed from Normal to High
- Affected Architecture All added
In addition this changes the auto generated gateway name for any dynamic gateway on an affected interface.
So if WAN_DHCP is set as the default gateway that no longer exists and the system loses it's default route.
