The proposed workaround with gnome-tweak-tool doesn't work for me. I can change the behaviour of Caps Lock in some ways, but not in others. Swiching Caps Lock with ESC works, but disabling it doesn't! (I use Unity with German localization.

As I mentioned in the similar bug 1222970... For Ubuntu 13.10, the extra keyboard layout options are in gnome-tweak- tool.
