The only *real* fix is to go to a non-querty keyboard.
No, retraining and reprogramming the user is not a solution.
Then you're stuck with a control key where it's difficult for the left pinky to get to.
As a practicle matter, if you wanted to use EMACs caps lock is turned off all my system. But that is just the beginning of the problem. EMACS is really designed fro a DVORK keyboard.
Feel free to suggest remappings that are easy for an index or second finger to reach on a querty keyboard (and which don't grab a commonly used key like 'h' or '6' :), or some other *real* fix that isn't a partial hack and doesn't fall into your "retraining and reprogramming" category.
