Unfortunately, for [at least] Caps Lock as layout switching key current
state definitely not "Fix Released". Just "some workaround available".

So... After update to 3.8.5-0ubuntu11.1 from saucy-updates/main
(environment restart required):

What is OK:
 * Caps Lock could be set as next/previous layout switching key via System 
Settings->Text Entry
 * When Caps Lock is set as layout switching key original Caps Lock function 
could be achieved via Shift+Caps Lock, Caps Lock LED for Caps Lock function 
works OK

What is broken:
 * Caps Lock could not be set as next/previous layout switching key via System 
Settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts->Typing
 * Each layout switch with Caps Lock key resets original Caps Lock function 
state to off, so there's no more Caps Lock function, just some kind of sticky 
Shift
 * No ability to use Caps Lock LED for current layout indication (already 
reported as separate bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1245188 )

And last but not least... Specials thanks to William Hua for saving this
Ubuntu release.
