Comment (by Pete):
On Ryan's suggestion I took a look at this, and have got it working to my
satisfaction. I chose to use the Ctrl key, rather that Shift, as the
enabler, because a lot of my accidental CapsLocks are when I was aiming
for the Shift! Ctrl is one key further away, so should not be hit by
mistake. Source attached as CapsLockFilter.2.cpp.
The original approach -- looking for Key Down/Up messages for Shift --
doesn't work, because modifier keys don't send these messages. Instead,
this code looks directly at the state when B_MODIFIERS_CHANGED is sent.
