SUMMARY
When trying to set up modifier only shoftcuts, ALT+SHIFT works as expected, but
SHIFT+ALT registers as META+ALT+SHIFT
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open keyboard shortcut settings
2. Select a keyboard shortcut and press the "Add custom shortcut" button.
3. press and hold SHIFT, followed by ALT, then release both.
OBSERVED RESULT
The custom shortcut is assigned as META+ALT+SHIFT
EXPECTED RESULT
The custom shortcut should be assigned as ALT+SHIFT, or SHIFT+ALT (I'm not sure
which makes more sense).
