[racket] shift/release shift keys in universe module

OK, it's quicker to experiment:

On my windows 7 machine in racket 5.3.3, holding the shift key followed by
a wheel down yields the sequence "shift" "wheel-down" "shift".

So the way to detect shift-click and the like is to look for a button-up
FOLLOWED by shift.

Is there any better way to do this?
