Holding Ctrl+Alt gets ignored

I'm not sure if this behavior is by design or not, but it's quite different from how Windows Explorer handles global shortcuts. An option to change it will be truly appreciated.
To reproduce:
- Assign a shortcut
Ctrl+Alt+n
to launch Notepad. - Press
Ctrl+Alt+n
once to open a Notepad instance. - Still holding
Ctrl+Alt
, press then
key repeatedly. This time, no new instances of Notepad are created, but only a series ofn
characters are typed into the first Notepad window.
In contrast, if a global shortcut is assigned to a shortcut of Notepad and thus handled by Explorer, the above keystrokes will create multiple Notepad instances.

@guilryder Thanks for the pointer! I should've read the doc better.
