hmm capslock is pretty useless. The only time I use it is when I hit
it by accident and press it again. It was for a time when all caps was
the only way you could emphasize something. Today we use *this* :)

But I had another thought that would keep capslock and make it
relevant. i often type and forget to capitalize the first letter of
each sentence. :)
With a new capslock, it would automatically capitalize the first
letter as well as every i, i'm, i'll, i'd, i've. This would eliminate
much use of the shift key and I think you'll see greater typing speeds
as a result.
