-- the ignore_modifier variable to create more key with or without the ignored
-- modifiers activated.
-- For example if you want to ignore CapsLock in your keybinding (which is
-- ignored by default by this function), creatina key binding with this function
-- will return 2 key objects: one with CapsLock on, and the other one with
-- CapsLock off.
-- @see capi.key
