On my Macintosh, at least, this stack does not do its stuff when I press any of the modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Command).
The OS does not report to applications when only a modifier key is pressed. (It's a little better on Windows for a few keys I think.) The OS only sends a message after the accompanying alpha key is pressed. This also applies to "commandkeydown" and other similar system messages, they only trigger after the second key is pressed.

[why no 'altKeyDown' and 'shiftKeyDown' ???]
The alt key is "optionKeydown", but again, you'll only get the message after the second key is pressed. The OS doesn't send a message for shift at all, because that key instead causes a different numeric parameter to be sent.
