Bug or Regression?

Bug

Description

Pushing alt or super, even if alt and super are bound to keys inside the submap cause the submap to become deactivated if the catchall is used

I tried adding: bind=SUPERALT,Alt_L,exec,nop

to the submap, it did not help.

How to reproduce

use a submap and push a modifier that's bound in the submap, here's my config for the sake of example

#submaps
bind = ALT, a, submap,onehand
bind = SUPER_ALT, 0, submap, "Gaming Mode - Press Alt+shift+0 to exit"
submap=onehand
bind = , e, movefocus, r
bind = , a, movefocus, l
bind = , COMMA, movefocus, u
bind = , o, movefocus, d
bind = ALT, e, movewindow, r
bind = ALT, a, movewindow, l
bind = ALT, COMMA, movewindow, u
bind = ALT, o, movewindow, d
binde = SUPER,e,resizeactive,10 0
binde = SUPER,a,resizeactive,-10 0
binde = SUPER,COMMA,resizeactive,0 -10
binde = SUPER,o,resizeactive,0 10
bindel =, XF86AudioRaiseVolume, exec, $volup
bindel =, XF86AudioLowerVolume, exec, $voldown
bindl =ALT, UP, exec, $volup
bindl =ALT, DOWN, exec, $voldown
bindl =, XF86AudioMute, exec, $volmute
bindl =, XF86MonBrightnessUp, exec, $lightup
bindl =, XF86MonBrightnessDown, exec, $lightdown
bindl =, XF86AudioPlay, exec, playerctl play
bindl =, XF86AudioPause, exec, playerctl pause
bindl =, XF86AudioNext, exec, playerctl next
bindl =, XF86AudioPrev, exec, playerctl previous
bindm = SUPER, mouse:272, movewindow
bindm = SUPER, mouse:273, resizewindow
bind = ,ESCAPE,submap,reset
bind = ,catchall,submap,reset
bind=SUPERALT,Alt_L,exec,nop
submap=reset
submap="Gaming Mode - Press Alt+shift+0 to exit"
bind = SUPER_ALT, 0, submap, reset
submap=reset

Maybe you should be using something like bindr = ,catchall,submap,reset instead of regular bind?

[Kommynct]

that does effectively work around the issue, but that shouldn't be necessary if the modifiers are bound anyway, thanks for that though!
