Why not map caps lock key to both escape AND control? I've been doing this successfully for a long time and couldn't live without it. You can use Autohotkey on windows and similar tools on other systems to interpret caps lock pressed by itself as escape, and caps lock pressed + another key as control.

Yes, that might have been a poor choice of words. Marks obviously have their place. In my case though I tend to use it much less than the other keys so was an obvious choice for remapping. YMMV however, and the plugin is written in a way that allows you to easily use whatever keys you want instead.

Thank you both for your fantastic answers. I now have a roadmap.
