Package: xkb-data
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I want alt-caps to toggle the group. I've been
using it for years now, and now I want to get it
supported officially.
The fix is by adding a few lines in two files. Starting
from the xkb "home" (currently /etc/X11/xkb, being moved
to /usr/share/X11/xkb).

After this, you can just add grp:alt_caps_toggle to
the XkbOptions in the xorg.conf file.
