build I20060110

In any of the spring-loaded switchers (Ctrl+F6/F7/F8), if Shift is pressed when it's up, it does not get dismissed automatically when the keys are released.
(I don't have the sticky pref on).

For example, this works OK:
- Ctrl down
- F7 down and up
- Ctrl up

But this does not:
- Ctrl down
- F7 down and up
- Shift down and up
- Ctrl up

This fixes the specific problem you mention, but it made me think about how the dialog works in general.  I suddenly had an urge to re-work it.  So, I'll run in fear and leave this patch to look at when I'm less busy.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
