Hi Will.

Just tried the patch.  It works nicely.

To play devil's advocate:  What about instances where folks are sharing
the same computer but not using separate usernames, and not all of them
are blind?  Okay so it's a stretch....  ;-)

Regardless, when you log out, xmodmap seems to get restored (read
"CapsLock works again").

Take care.
