I'm against remapping it myself, not for any love of the key's intended
function (though I do find a use for it once a year or so) but I found that
when I began to rely on that key doing something more useful it became a big
annoyance when I was working at any other machine.  Both for the lack of
functionality and the frequent unintended switches to all caps. ;-)  But
then again, my jobs have always been the sort where I find myself using a
couple dozen different keyboards over the course of a day.
