Affects Ubuntu 17.10-18.04, Gnome, Unity with Wayland or X11.

Simple to reproduce:
1. Press Alt
2. Press Shift
3. Release ONLY Alt (expected - continue text typing using uppercase or shifted 
special symbols)
4. Try to type text - but nothing happens, input blocked and window unfocused. 
WTF?

Also i tried use
```
setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout ru,us -option grp:lalt_toggle -verbose
```
And it not working as expected:
1. Press Alt
2. Press Shift
3. Release ONLY Alt (expected - continue text typing using uppercase or shifted 
special symbols)
4. Try to type text. Typed text in lowercase, ignoring Shift.

In earlier ubuntu versions ALt+Shift works fine.
