I like your first suggestion, since I didn't like comparing to zero 
(though checking if it was still controlMask would be more correct logic 
than what I have now, anyway).
As for the second suggestion, I sort of like it and sort of don't. Is 
there a good reason to not ignore shift? I most certainly want to ignore 
numlock, but I can't purely determine what that is, and I don't think 
there's a particularly good reason not to ignore the others.
