Description

First off, thanks for an awesome library!

I can't seem to get the the sequence functionality working with modified keys (e.g. space,shift+3). Is there a way around this? In other words, I want a user to press the space bar and then the pound key. Ideally it'd be able to do space,#, but space,shift+3 is ok, too.

I've tested space,3 and shift+3 and both work separately (of course), but I can't get space,shift+3 (or the ideal space,#) working.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the jwerty source code to understand how sequences are parsed and how key events are matched, focusing on the handling of modifier keys within sequences. Look for how the library detects combined keys like 'shift+3' in a sequence context.
