You can remap the key to be whatever you want.  I personally remap it
to tab, which makes command completion easier.  I have found that I
just never need caps lock.  If the little words printed on the
keyboard bother you, cover them with a little piece of tape or
something... but you really shouldn't be looking at your hands
anyway. ;-)

See xkeycaps, for example.  There is a non-X11 equivalent too, but I
don't remember it, off hand.
