    Description

      The Swing text components do not create upper case keys when the caps lock
      key is on, The Notepad demo exhibits this problem.

      Using a TextArea instead we see that the caps lock does work and from
      printing out the events we do see the capslocks and state field change so
      it may be a translation problem with Swing.

      The code does include caps lock fixes for other platforms but this does not
      seem to make a difference
