Ah, I see. My approach had been to try to make the keyboard table
make the CapsLock key work like the Control key -- which is
theoretically possible, but not practically possible, I fear. So,
what you are saying is, instead, just assign the "control" keys
to caps lock instead. However, I foresee one problem. Unlike control,
caps lock is a press-once-on, press-once-off state kind of key --
unlike any other. How would we disable this?
