The "Alt" modifier key does not work, because Alt is bound to menu's. #182

Thank you for this extension, it is really useful and works very well (for me). Except for one issue, that I believe is an oversight and that more people will experience:

When you use the "Alt" modifier, it selects texts, but does not place any carets.

I believe this is because the "Alt" modifier, is linked to bringing up the menus. I know that, because when I use your extension and use "Alt" modifier, select text and press space, or enter... then it will open up "File" menu. (see screenshot)

"Ctrl" and "Shift" modifier work fine.

Thank you again for this extension. I hope that this little issue can be fixed, so it works exactly as Visual Studio, since that is more intuitive.
