Summary: Cursor diagonals releases shift on first release

Initial Comment:
It seems I was a bit quick in closing the original issue, and I don't seem to be able to re-open it - sorry!

Cursor diagonals do work now, but releasing the first cursor key also releases shift, leaving just the unshifted number pressed.

I've attached a test program to show the state of shift/5/6/7/8 keys, which should make it easy to reproduce.  If you hold Up and Left it shows "Shift 5 7", and if you release Up it shows just "5", when it should show "Shift 5".

Message:
That is correct but I wan't considering it a bug as I was taking the use of
the cursor keys in this context to be about using it as a cursor joystick
which doesn't use the shift key itself so games seem to work properly
nonetheless.

How are you using this feature where the shift key state makes a
difference? To support this use I think the core Fuse code will need to be
modified to support multiple key presses which affect the same modifier key
(caps or symbol shift).
