    You also need to handle the case where you have use shifted arrow
    to mark the region, and then use an unshifted arrow ... which should
    deactivate the mark.

    It seems like a simpler solution would be to have special events 
    like <shift-down> <shift-up> <meta-down> <meta-up> etc....

Why not just bind the shifted and unshifted arrow keys to new commands?
We only need 8 of them.
