I guess the proposed criterion should get adjusted per our latest discussion in blocker review meeting, i.e. this one:

16:28:24 <adamw> #agreed 1755898 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - per list and meeting discussion of bcotton's proposed criterion, we agree in principle to block on modifier key toggling working well and consistently throughout the system, but not on the light state being correct (as that is difficult to guarantee). consequently the 'shell and apps behave differently' portion of this is accepted

Based on this, I am presenting a modified proposal:

== Keyboard toggle keys ==

For all release-blocking desktops, the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys
must correctly toggle the relevant behavior for the desktop and all
applications.



The only potential issue I see is that the indicator lights are not mentioned. Some people might assume that this text means the lights must work correctly also. This could result in a continuing string of bug reports.

It may be worthwhile to state that the toggle state may not be correctly represented by the light state.

I understand that saying (what seems to be an obvious failure) is acceptable is a problem.

This one may hang around to haunt us  for many Halloweens to come.


	Have a Great Day!
