SUMMARY

Modifier keys are not respected when using a tablet pen.
Performing actions that require a modifier key, such as Control + Click, act as
if no modifier keys are pressed.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use a tablet pen
2. Perform an action that uses both the pen and a modifier key. Eg control +
click for multi-select

OBSERVED RESULT
Modifier keys are not respected. For example the following actions are
impossible:
- Selecting multiple files in Dolphin using shift/control + click
- Opening a new instance of an application by shift-clicking it's icon in the
task manager
- Drawing angled lines by holding shift/control in KolourPaint
- Selecting multiple emails in Kmail using shift/control + click

EXPECTED RESULT
Modifier keys function exactly as when using a mouse or touchscreen

Enabling touch mode on my tablet, so it functions as a touch screen, and then
using my hand does work correctly. This issue seems specific to using the
tablet pen.
