That would be slightly annoying as this would mean by design it's
broken by default :/ Also, we have no Xorg release supporting
modifiers anyway and it does seem to work with X 1.20.8 (which doesn't
enable modifier support). And I talked with Jonas (working on mutter)
about it and there were no plans to turn on modifier support by
default at this point.
