   Importance: Unknown

** Description changed:

  Up until Raring, it was trivial to use the gnome-control-center to modify 
caps lock key behavior.
  In earlier versions you could do the following:
   - Launch System Settings
   - Click on Keyboard Layout
   - Click on Options
   - These options allow one to modify Caps Lock Key behavior (for example swap 
it with ESC)
  
  In newer versions of Saucy I try to do the following:
    - Launch System Settings
    - Click on Keyboard
    - Click on Layout Settings
    - Cannot find a location similar to these older options
  
  These older 'Keyboard Layout Options' made it very easy to do things
  like swaping Caps Lock for ESC which make vim users much happier.
