I see.  I expect that would be a hazardous and/or fragile thing to 
attempt on X, especially if, as I believe, the latching behavior is a 
hardware feature on some (most?) keyboards.  On Windows you could 
circumvent this by meddling with the keyboard drivers, but I think we 
want to avoid getting that intrusive.  So we should probably consider 
CapsLock to be an always-latching key, IMO.
