value is ``1`` which means no modifiers.
When the key event is related to an actual modifier key, the corresponding modifier's bit
must be set for the press event and reset for the release event. For example
when pressing the :kbd:`LEFT_CONTROL` key, the ``ctrl`` bit must be set and
when releasing it, it must be reset. When both left and right control keys are
pressed and one is released, the release event must again have the ``ctrl`` bit
reset.
When the key event is related to an actual modifier key, the corresponding
modifier's bit must be set to the modifier state including the effect for the
current event. For example, when pressing the :kbd:`LEFT_CONTROL` key, the
``ctrl`` bit must be set and when releasing it, it must be reset. When both
left and right control keys are pressed and one is released, the release event
must have the ``ctrl`` bit set. See :iss:`6913` for discussion of this design.
