It's a complicated setup related to japanese keyboard, which is not really related to this problem. In case you're still curous: Basically you can't get the Katakana_Hiragana Key working with Shift when you base your keyboard setup on the jp layout, because there this key is defined as a Caps key (or whatever). Workaround for me for years was loading another keyboard table with setxkbmap, and then loading the complete desired keytable with xmodmap. I now managed to solve the problem by manipulating the XKB Symbols files directly - so I just need to modify few (5) keys with xmodmap. But direct manipulation may be out of option for some persons. I just wanted to report that this problem was not present before and was only introduced with the switch to xfwm 4.6 . This one prevented me long time from upgrading, because a 1+ Minute freeze every system startup was quite unacceptable for me.
