Description

### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The developer app only has the option to distinguish left and right Ctrl/Alt. It would be much appreciated if Shift also had a left and right distinction.

### Describe the solution you'd like

Left Shift opens its own set of characters and so does Right Shift. Left Shift and Right Shift would be their separate characters on top of the main one. Just like with the left and right Ctrl/Alt keys.
