Title:
  Changing Caps Lock to Shift Lock does not work

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a laptop with a Azerty keyboard.
  Now I want to change the default behavior of the Caps Lock to make it a Shift Lock.

  This can be change in the Regional Settings under Keyboard.
  There I changed it to make 'Caps lock act as Shift with lock'.

  But even after this, the 'Shift Lock' doesn't act like it should.
  With Shift-Lock enabled it still gives '&É"'( instead of 1234 like it should.

  
  The Caps-Lock is correctly seen:
  keycode 66 = (keysym 0xffe5, Caps_Lock), state = 0x0
  keycode 66 = (keysym 0xffe5, Caps_Lock), state = 0x2
  keycode 66 = (keysym 0xffe5, Caps_Lock), state = 0x2
  keycode 66 = (keysym 0xffe5, Caps_Lock), state = 0x2
