Describe the bug

When setting shortcuts it is not possible to use the Circumflex key.
Testing around "shift + circumflex(above Tabkey) + command" works but not if I don't use shift.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

Yes, this issue prevents me from using Warp daily.

Is this a Warp specific issue? (i.e. does it happen in Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, etc.)

Yes, this I confirmed this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.

Research direction

Reproduce the shortcut flow through Settings > Features > global hotkey keybinding on macOS with a German keyboard, comparing circumflex + Command with Shift + circumflex + Command. Start by tracing the shortcut handling for the circumflex key and verify behavior against another terminal. Done means Command + circumflex is accepted and registered without Shift.
