If you don't include this, you'll have problems using caps lock with other keyboards. Add the following to your private.xml and enable it for any non-AEK keyboard.

Take out the ALPS sliders using screwdrivers as prying tools (documented elsewhere) and exchange the assemblies. When you've decided, pop off the Caps Lock keycap and the target key's keycap. I believe due to hardware constraints, this swap will render the donor key useless, so pick something you won't ever use. I swapped with Num Lock you can also do something like Pause that you'll never use. First, you need to physically exchange the locking switch with a non-locking switch. The AEK's caps lock key is a locking ALPS switch, which means if you want to remap it to Command/Control, you have some work to do.
