1) It binds special commands to the shifted keys, which doesn't
work for minor modes which put different commands on the
non-shifted keys.
2) C-h k S-down doesn't show the doc string of the original command.
3) It only works with transient-mark-mode off, so explicit
region start C-SPC has no highlighting.
4) The list of supported keys/commands is not complete.
5) This approach is already used by s-mark and pc-selection-mode...
