Tomas, I think you're right. I switched this to modified too soon, I still see the keyboard layout switching in Firefox like you mentioned, and in gnome-terminal. Not entirely sure what a good fix would be, but having ctrl+shift as a keyboard layout modifier doesn't make sense when so many applications use ctrl+shift commands as well. Perhaps it shouldn't be an option?

Moving this back to Assigned for now.
