Shortcuts relying on modifier keys are not executed until the key is released
New, WishlistPublic

Description

This has been bugging me for a long time, when working with the editor.
I find myself hitting the same shortcuts over and over simply because they're not working. Or so I thought.

But as it turns out, it's because the action isn't executed until the main key is released, while in general in Windows, the action is executed on pressing the key.

This means instead of doing a usual "roll" of the hand to just press control, press main key, release control, release main key, you have to press control, press main key, release main key, release control.
