The keypress events for ctrl+shift+2 and ctrl+shift+6 result in charcodes that are the shifted equivelant (ie. ctrl+shift+@ and ctrl+shift+^).  All other ctrl+shift+number bindings result in the unshift charcode.  The patch soon to be attached to this bug makes the bindings consistent, which is important for cross platform keybinding systems.

Reproducible: Always

There are a couple other bugs that are semi-related to this, but are old and stale.  bug 203231 and bug 50255

this patch broke a few things and shouldn't be used.
