Those and Alt-gr are the only ones on my keyboard anyway so that should do
the trick. Personally I'm no big fan of binding to Apple/Windows keys
because those aren't present everywhere and it makes explanations so much
more complicated ("press foo on Windows, or Bar on a Mac, otherwise press
baz, and.....")

I think this should do the trick, at least for now. The only reason I can
think of to press shift on it's own would be pinball games and those can
wait until ODE is done with sometimes crashing.

Thanks gain!
