In note input mode, after inputting a note, holding shift should temporarily move the input cursor back

Your idea

Holding shift after entering a note already lets you add notes to create a chord at the last-entered note, but while doing so, the note entry cursor remains on the next input location.

It would be nice if there was visual feedback that moved the cursor to where a note will be input while shift is being held. Releasing shift would move the cursor back where it started. So holding/releasing/holding/releasing would look like this:

Problem to be solved

Make it more obvious what holding shift does when in note input mode.

Additional context

Note that shift would only move the cursor back if you just entered a note. If you've moved the cursor with the arrow key, the cursor location and the entry point of Shift + [A–G] is the same, because of where the selected note is, so shift wouldn't do anything visually in this case.

Reproduce note input mode and the existing Shift behavior using the issue description and attached examples. Locate the note-entry and cursor-handling entry points, then trace how a just-entered note differs from a cursor moved with an arrow key. Done means the cursor visibly indicates the Shift note position while held and returns to its prior position when released.
