Hello all,

I got report in Red Hat bugzilla that CapsLock emulation breaks some
toolkits (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577187).

Basically some toolkits check which keys are pressed and behave
differently when you press, for example, CapsLock + a + CapsLock and
when you press Shift + a + Shift. Currently we ignore CapsLock press
as written in RFB protocol but as written in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577187#c5, x11vnc has
option which deals with CapsLock press as "expected" so it is
simply "pressed" on server side.

What do you think about that -capslock option? I know it is not nice
but I don't know about better solution of this problem.

Comments are welcomed.

Regards, Adam
