Shifted key translation

Thanks for brining this up @bernardjoseph!

I think your solution is fine, but it could be in a better place.
The call to god-mode-lookup-command could be done in either:

• The outer let* form, or
• The god-key-string-after-consuming-key function (I think).

That would make it slightly cleaner.
If the tests are passing with your change in verbatim though, I'm happy to merge that in and refactor it later.

That being said, you shouldn't be using C-S-N (or C-S-n) in the spirit of modal editing 😄
Instead, you should call set-mark-command and next-line i.e. SPC n in God mode.
Note that SPC n doesn't use any modifier keys.

Actually, I'm curious about the behavior with your change and the Caps Lock key turned on.
Is the behavior correct in that case?

[bernardjoseph]

I must confess I do not know what the correct behavior is. Without God mode, pressing Ctrl-anything with Caps Lock on seems to ignore Caps Lock. With God mode enabled, with Caps Lock on, all alphanumeric keys are shifted. For me the behavior is ok and I am more wondering about the behavior with God mode turned off. What do you think?

[bernardjoseph]

Sorry, after playing a bit more I am now convinced that the Caps Lock behavior is not good.

A checked the behavior in View mode, which has some capital letter bindings. With Caps Lock on, all capital letter bindings are in effect. That is a strange behavior for me, I was not aware of until now. Caps Lock is not really recognized by Emacs in those cases.
