I used to remap CapsLock to Backspace, but gave up because I had one machine -- a 1998 PowerBook (this was obviously before OSX) -- on which I didn't know how to remap it, and changing back and forth was a pain. Once I got used to Backspace in the upper right corner, I no longer had much motivation to change back again. And I don't bother remapping CapsLock to Control because I already have two Control keys. Also, on most full-size keyboards, I swap around the modifiers so that I can press the Control and Alt keys with the sides of my palms. This works very well. (I put Control on the inside and Alt on the outside, the reverse of the usual PC layout.) So while I don't consider the standard position of CapsLock to be ideal, in the end it hasn't proven worth the trouble to move it.
