No idea if this is a good approach[0], but it works for me.

/etc/xdg/swayosd/backend.toml set to

[input]
ignore_caps_lock_key = true

[0] I think in an ideal world we would ignore the capslock key and instead monitor the capslock status[1], but I have no idea how one would do that

[1] I do actually like having a capslock status notifier - the reason I'm adding in support to ignore the capslock key is that I have the capslock key aliased to escape, so it no longer has anything to do with the capslock status
