One of the arguments for Insert (or rather KP_Insert, the 0 on the numeric
keypad), is that you can do "chords" (Insert-<whatever>) with one hand,
whilst the other hand could remain on the braille display.  I can 
quantify how
significant that is to a blind user. Hopefully other members of this 
list can
speakup (sorry) and tell us.

My feeling is that we just need to pick a default that most people want.
If that's CapsLock to be compatible with JAWS and Speakup, then so be it.
As it's configurable, other users can adjust accordingly.
