I have a question about the keyboard input handling of Blender.

I'm running Kubuntu 14.10, and set up my Caps LockCaps Lock such that it acts like an extra CtrlCtrl key (System Settings → Input Devices → Keyboard → Advanced → Caps Lock key behaviourbehavior → Make Caps Lock an additional Ctrl)

Every application simply sees it as just another CtrlCtrl key. Blender, however, now ignores the key altogether. Pressing [Caps Lock]Caps Lock + [W]W acts as if I just pressed [W]W. The Python scripting console also keeps typing in lower case after pressing [Caps Lock]Caps Lock, which shows that it's no longer interpreted as Caps LockCaps Lock either.

This happens when running Blender 2.72b, as well as when I compile my own Blender from Git.

Who can help me solve this?

Caps lock to control: not accepted by Blender
