Pressing Left Shift + Keypad causes keypad to remain in the pressed state

Input

-

To reproduce:
1. Create a project and add the Test.cs script to it
2. Run the game
3. Press Keypad 8 - console says keypad on
4. While holding the keypad 8, press left shift. Release the keypad 8 and then release shift. Notice how the console is still flooding with Keypad on

Note: seems to happen specifically with left shift + keypad.

    Note that other modifier keys (Alt, Ctrl) seem to work fine. Only shift seems to be the problem.

    In the old system, I reported Case 522013, which is probably related. In my example I was using both Shift keys to control the flippers in a pinball game. On the Mac this worked fine. On Windows, this sequence would cause the keys to start stuck in the "pressed" state:

    "Hold the LEFT SHIFT key. Now also hold the RIGHT SHIFT key. Now release the RIGHT SHIFT key. You'll notice that both boxes are stuck in the air until the LEFT SHIFT key is released. The same problem happens if you invert the LEFT/RIGHT order."

    This was marked as Resolved/Postponed with this comment from Silviu:

    "The bug has been reproduced and our developers have put them on our roadmap for a partial system rewrite. We can't say when this will be ready for release, so we have resolved this bug as postponed."

    I reported the bug in Feb 2013 and it was "resolved" in June, though I can confirm that it's still a problem.
