+Summary: TextBox: Support keyboard switch from/to RtoL/LtoR
+
+Currently MWF does not support text input switch from and to RtoL/LtoR by
+hitting CTRL + Left Shift (LtoR) or CTRL + Right Shift (RtoL).
+
+Here I reuse example code in #78403:
+
+using System;
+using System.Windows.Forms;
+
+public class Test : Form
+{
+        public static void Main ()
+        {
+                Application.Run (new Test ());
+        }
+
+        public Test ()
+        {
+                TextBox tb = new TextBox ();
+                tb.Text = "sample";
+                tb.TextAlign = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
+                Controls.Add (tb);
+                Button b = new Button ();
+                b.Top = 20;
+                b.Text = "to right";
+                b.Click += delegate (object o, EventArgs e) {
+                        Console.WriteLine (tb.TextAlign);
+                        tb.TextAlign = HorizontalAlignment.Left;
+                };
+                Controls.Add (b);
+        }
+}
+
+
+Additional Information:
+
+Incomplete patch being attached. To make it possible, I had to add
+GetKeyState() in XplatUI. However, I'm not sure if it is possible to detect
+that pushed shift key is left or right.
+
+The patch seems incomplete because even on Windows it does not seem to work
+l/r shift detection...
