Hi,
Actually, the patch works for key shortcuts with two or more buttons (like 
ALT+SHIFT, but not Alt or Ctrl alone). It is not done intentionally.

Despite the fact that there is a possibility to improve current patch behaviour 
for needs like yours I don't think it should be improved for all possible cases 
- 
there are many other things to be done to make the world a better place.
