Native port works great.  In fact, TTY version will also work great
given a decent terminal client.  I love PuTTY but it just does not
understand Shift-arrow.   Am fiddling with various clients to see what
will work.

I wonder if you have used Org-mode inside GNU Screen as well?
Shift-arrow seems to be an issue under Screen as well.
