Control key in the right place.

It is rather annoying that the frequently used (on computers, especially
running UNIX/Linux/BSD) control key is usually put in an awkward place
on the keyboard, while the rarely used (on computers) caps-lock key is
put where the control key would be more conveniently placed.  Software
remapping of the keyboard is often defeated by sticky caps-lock keys.
