#2227: Most key caps do not match generated character

If I press the key labeled "2", I get "2" on screen. Fine. But when I
press "A", I get "a" which looks totally different.
Solution: Label keys with both upper and lowercase characters, just as we
do for number and punctuation keys.
I know how hard it was for my kids to learn the distinction between upper
and lower case and that they actually are the "same" letter. For kids
learning to write mainly on these machines, offering both upper and
lowercase is essential IMHO.
