Sure. Wine corrects state according to its internal lpKeyState. Difference
between internal and actual state value is due to the fact that Wine does not
see (or better X does not show) some keyboard events. Since I also have
"grp:ctrl_shift_toggle" I had seen the same state correction.

Perhaps Wine should ignore ISO_Prev_Group/ISO_Next_Group keyboard events to not
confuse users.
