Description

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

In your help keybindings, you list a couple of key combinations that are available.

Combining Ctrl with Shift is not mentioned.

A few lines later, you mention that things such as CtrlShiftLeft ARE actually part of the default key settings. Manually setting CtrlShiftL to SelectLine, as an example, has turned out to not work.
