AFAICS the key state will report whether the "lock key"

No, at least in my tests on Win32 they did indicate toggled state.
Otherwise | would not have a problem in the first place.

AFAIR GetAsyncKeyState encodes both the key state (up/down) and the lock state (locked/unlocked) in different bits of the byte array. But this may be different on other platforms, possibly unavailable information (private to the keyboard driver...). On mobile devices without a (full) keyboard the shift and lock states may be emulated, not corresponding to physically absent keys.

Therefore the TShiftState, as used with mouse messages, should include only commonly available keys and buttons, as far as *usable* to modify *mouse* operations. A software, checking for e.g. a combination of CTRL-left and SHIFT-right while the mouse wheel is turned, would not be very "handy" to use ;-)
