Public bug reported: Until Ubuntu 23.04, with the "french alternative" [français (variante)] keyboard, capslock gave you directly uppercase accented characters (like É È À) from the keys 2, 7 and 0 of the fifth row of the keyboard. With 23.10 Mantic, it has disappeared with Wayland (you get é, è, à) BUT it works like before if you connect with Xorg.
