Exactly. Assign a "Shift" key functionality to a button (button press=shift 
pressed,button release=shift released). I was using also the "Ctrl" key for 
another button. I think it would be sufficient to release all "forgetten" 
pressed keys automatically (in reversed order), when the button is released - 
that would sanitise the user's input too.

Just double-click (Button 3) without any assigned functonality - just a pure 
button. I've tried it with tracing enabled, but I didn't see any difference 
from single click, only no mouse clicks accepted afterwards (also from normal 
mouse) - until the keyboard's key is pressed. 

I wanted to have a look at it during weekend, but I didn't have any free time 
for that...
