Ok ok, you all have convinced me that this should be solved on Roassal part,
not by calling such low level stuff like Sensor. I'll try to make and
propose some changes in Roassal to forward such information.

And, Alex, my case is that when I just drag box around items on cavas (do
marquee selection), all previously selected items are deselected and there
is new selection made, but if I have shift pressed while doing it, these new
selected items are ADDED to previous selection. I wanted it to be control
instead of shift, but it seems control+left mouse button=right mouse button
(don't know why, what a waste of ctrl, maybe for compatibility with some OS
unknown to me (OS X?) or some old OS - like I've seen there are parts of
Pharo where mouse buttons are called blue, yellow and red :) ).
I created my own subclass of RTAbstractElasticBoxInteraction for that job
and this RTAbstractElasticBoxInteraction also needs to be modified to
forward such "...KeyPressed" info. I didn't use RTSelectableView, because I
do not want to select each Roassal element separatedly, but I need to select
only our DynaCASE "elements" which may consist of multiple Roassal elements.
