Comment 26 for bug 173350

Sebastien: Upstream does think this bug doesn't matter. Really, how hard would it be to insert the equivalent of "remove Lock = Caps_Lock" before remapping caps lock? It probably won't take much longer than insisting that this is not a gnome bug (even though it could trivially be worked around there). I'd actually be willing to familiarize myself enough with the gnome-control-center code to fix this, except that it wouldn't get in anyway, since "the option is not on by default" and therefore "not a priority for hardy".
