When typing one-handed or on a phone, it's challenging to capitalize all letters in a callsign. It looks like autocapitalize="characters" can do this automatically.

Great suggestion! Added in 1669bf7. From the doc it sounds like autocapitalize is mainly for mobile virtual keyboards, not physical keyboards, so there may be more work required.

Also, this reminds me about #9: QSO entry on mobile needs a lot of love!

Yeah, it looks like this effectively triggers the shift key on the on-screen mobile keyboard after each character. It doesn't seem to have an effect on non-mobile Chrome, and if you hit shift (to go to lower case) on mobile and type a letter it stays lower case in the input field. That said, I think this is a big improvement on mobile, and hitting shift on a laptop isn't too bad.

I didn't mean to close this, there's more we can do here relatively easy. There's no use case I can think of for ever allowing lower case in a callsign.
