Subject: Send key events for the modifiers

Before sending a key event while modifiers are active, send events for
the modifier keys.

Some applications don't look at the "metaState" flags but instead keep
track of the up and down events for the modifiers.

For example, the basic text views that are in every applications
correctly handle the "metaState" flags except for one binding:
Selecting text with the arrows while pressing shift.
