Ever go to hit 'a' and hit caps lock?
Make it so you have to hit caps twice
quicly to engage and twice quickly to
disengage.

I never even use it. I always just hold
shift WHENEVER I WANT TO TYPE LIKE
AN IDIOT. |

If you actually know how to touchtype this should never happen to you. As you type you read the text on screen and the error is corrected before it becomes a problem. |
|
| |
Usually by the time my brain has realised the mistake I'm halfway through the sentence. Although two taps would be horrible confusing. And what about languages abundant with 'aa's? |

Capslock obviously shouldn't be placed where it is. But then, most of the keys on Qwerty shouldn't be placed where they are. <3 |
|
| |
Just make hitting capslock disengage it if it's on, and if it's off, require a 1 or 2 second delay holding it before it's enabled. |
|
| |
(Or maybe make the capslock light flash when on.) |
|
| |
Maybe make all the other keys on the keyboard pop up 1 inch into the air when caps lock is pressed. This gives you a tactile, visual sense of what you are conveying. |
