Oh yeah. In the proposed hack^h^h^h^h "interface modification", the KEYSTATE event would report the status of the "modifier" keys as well. You wouldn't get the ascii equivalent, but you'd get the scancode in the key portion and the status of the keys in the usual place, when they goup or down.
Why do you call that solution a hack? Is there anything unclean here?
I think Evan has already demonstrated that he's unqualified to render meaningful design feedback. Just ignore him for now, maybe in a few years when he actually has a clue he could offer something useful.
