 An anonymous reader asks "Recently I have noticed that I
 haven't used caps lock other for any purpose other than
 hitting it by accident. Once upon a time, COBOL was
 written in all caps, and other languages like BASIC and
 Fortran were not case sensitive. Capitals were the way to
 go for writing code. Does the caps lock key serve any
 purpose any more, and if not, should it be removed, moved,
 or replaced?"
