That isn't true.  Some apps shouldn't have GSIs - our calculator for
example - and that's precisely why we have an exception mechanism.

As to whether your app should somehow tweak the GSI to not indicate that
the user just did a up-shift stroke, I am not sure.  But I had to correct
the above assertion; we (Palm) make the certification rules and do realize
that there are valid times for exceptions, and times to hold fast on the UI
rules for the good of the user.
