Public bug reported:

On Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic) I am not able to use Ctrl+Shift, Control+Alt
and other combinations which include only modifier keys to switch input
source (works in gnome shell).

I solved this problem by making patch for gnome-flashback.
There problem with function gtk_accelerator_valid(keyval, modifiers), which 
always return False for such combinations. So I`ve just removed this validation.

Patch also include fix for modifier release event.
