Java > Editor > Hovers preference page: The Key entry field should write the
pressed key on KeyDown and not on KeyUp (like the Keys preference page, but
unlike there, modifiers should not disappear on keyUp).

It should also be possible to enter e.g. Shift + Ctrl by pressing the two keys
together.

Just wanted to file this one again. The behavior of the modifier edit field is
really counterintuitive. In the editor, the hover type is changed whenever the
modifiers are pressed together. In the prefs, nothing happens when I press e.g.
"Ctrl + Alt".
