Bug: must put shift keys in defsrc to highlight on a layer

[brandonbeaumia]

Requirements

• I've searched platform-specific issues, issues and discussions to see if this has been reported before.

Describe the bug

When using a config that does not have lshift/rshift in defsrc, navigation keys (arrows/pgdn/etc) used within a layer do not highlight while holding shift.

Relevant kanata config

(defsrc 
    caps h j k l
)

(deflayer base
    @nav h j k l
)

(deflayer navlayer
    @base left down up right
)

(defalias base (layer-switch base))
(defalias nav (layer-switch navlayer))

To Reproduce

1. Set config to above.
2. Press caps to switch layers.
3. Hold shift and press navigation keys.

Expected behavior

Text should highlight in the direction of navigation.

Kanata version

kanata v1.6.0-prerelease-1

Debug logs

No response

Operating system

Windows 11

Additional context

Easily worked around after learning the fix, but have not run across documentation about this behavior. Unless fixable, add a note to config.adoc's defsrc entry?

Thanks, I wasn't aware of this issue!

To clarify, you're using the default binary and not the interception/wintercept variant right?

[brandonbeaumia]

Correct, just kanata.exe from releases.
