[Bug 346705] [NEW] [wishlist] Confirmation bubble for Lock keys

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I was looking at the list of applets for GNOME panel in Synaptic, and I had an idea.
There is a "lock-keys-applet" [1] for gnome panel available, but we also have a new notification mode for hotkeys actions. Why can't we have confirmation bubbles also for lock keyboard keys?

Use case:
I have a Microsoft wireless keyboard, and the "lock" status led are on the wireless receiver. If I press the Caps Lock key I want to be able to know whether this action activated the caps lock or inactivated it, without having to look at the receiver (which is also hid by my lcd monitor). An hotkey confirmation bubble would be perfect.
