Using enabling LOCKING_SUPPORT and using LCAP keycode in keymap you can use physical locking Capslock key as you expected. For example, Apple Extended Keyboard(AEK) and AEK II have.
Using enabling this feature and using keycodes `LCAP`, `LNUM` or `LSCR` in keymap you can use physical locking CapsLock, NumLock or ScrollLock keys as you expected.
