I REALLY HATE typing all in caps without using caps lock, as it ties my hands in knots. YMMV :)

I've never had a problem with it, but then I'm one of these non-official-touch-typists whose typing style evolved to match the requirements made on it. I can type fine with one or several fingers out of action due to injury or holding food or whatever (except for one or two that I really depend on), so keeping my left little finger on Shift doesn't present a problem for me at all. Certainly rather that than have a caps lock key, though I suppose it might be different if my usage patterns required me to type in all-caps lots of the time.

Of course, I now recall that in my BBC-using days I typically left Caps Lock on all the time in its overridable mode, and held down shift when I wanted to type in lower case :-)
