I think I have a solution. I've looked at the command line options for
caffeine many times, and I never noticed the "-useshift" option, which
makes it use the shift key instead of f15.  That should do the trick
for me. I'm testing it now, and it appears to be fine (and it also
doesn't appear to cause trouble if I'm typing while the event is
emitted).
