App Q&A testing by request.
Typically, I put my Imac's display to sleep when I head to bed (I set up something..rendering, video processing, etc to go on while I'm away). I press Ctrl-Shft-Eject and it does that, as it's supposed to.

Recently, however, I'm finding when I use the Ctril and Shift keys on the right side of the keyboard, rather than putting the display to sleep, it brings up the shutdown/restart dialog, as if I hadn't used the "shift key".

If I use the left side keys, things work fine. If I use the left crtl and the right shift, it works fine. If I use the right ctrl and the left shift, it works fine. It's JUST the right Ctrl and shift together there's a problem.

I haven't been able to find the right word combo to do a good search on this yet, so I'm hoping someone might have some thoughts on what to do.
