It's the terminfo database which tells programs which string it should expect. For instance, shift-left/right are recorded there as kLFT, kRIT. You can see the whole set defined for your terminal with infocmp, and you can define more by hand. But there is no field in the terminfo database for shift-up/down, so there is no standard way for terminal programs to get them.
