Hello,

I have just committed a new panel applet to kdenonbeta. The applet shows 
the state of the Shift, Control, Alt, Alt Graph, Num Lock and Caps Lock 
keys.

Additional features are:
- Sound effect when the state changes (via KNotify)
- The user can change the state by clicking on the icons in the applet"

Intended features that are yet missing are:
- add DCOP functionality for changing the state of the modifier keys
- A context menu for the displayed items which allows the user to:
+ hide some of the keys
+ turn the sounds completely off (individual sounds can be turned off in 
the "Sounds&Notification" KCM)
+ open the KCM for AccessX features (and possibly also the KCM for keyboard 
repeat rates)
