Thanks, Benjamin.  I will propose this patch for merge as soon as some
technical difficulties with the natty/qemu-kvm tree are straightened
out.  Hopefully tomorrow.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier (similar to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the client prints a "t" instead of a "-". A caps lock key up event is sent to the client before I release the caps lock key.
