An idea whose time has come... or gone, depends I guess.

"I've launched a campaign to rid the world of the caps lock key. Sure, there are more serious problems to solve but please, think of the children! How am I going to explain to my kids why some of the most valuable keyboard real estate is squatted by a large, useless key that above all you must not press! Our campaign mission is simple: to send a message to the computer industry to force it (by any means necessary) to retire the CAPS key. It's going to be a hard, long, and possibly very embarassing war on uppercase, but some things just need to be done. "

You know, I know it almost sounds silly, but really, I think this is a good idea. Given the already crowded left hand, having a nother control key, or maybe even bringing back the long-forgotten "back tab" key there would be a good idea.
