I (somewhat abashedly) grudgingly admit that a caps lock function is useful, but putting it where it is on the standard keyboard was a crime. When I feel the need, I use an alias to

xmodmap -e 'add Lock = Scroll_Lock'

to utilize an otherwise unused key. (System settings sets the key beside A to control.)
