I am not sure how it technically works: when I use the system variable to turn ON the caps key, the MSX perceives all keypresses as expected. On openMSX the caps light does not flash on. Is this because a real machine light also wouldn't turn on or is this something that is on the to-do list?

Use the CHGCAP BIOS routine to change the light. Internally it will update PPI register C.

in other words: a real MSX machine would behave the same. Emulation in openMSX is fine.
