A new selective unmod, like:
unmodex (list-of-modifiers-to-unmod) action-to-execute
So we have better control in the "only change a few keys behavior when mod keys held" scenario
Describe alternatives you've considered.
Didn't come up with one.

Hi I'm new to kanata. I'm trying to make bash-like A-b/f/d global, basiclly map them to C-left/rght/del, while keep other keys untouched.
I tried the multi showcase at first, like:
;; word-wise back
(defalias wwb (multi (release-key alt) C-left)
But I found the alt key released after @wwb activated, I didn't find a way to re-enable alt unless phyical release it.
I'm now using a ugly work around:
(defcfg)
(defsrc
` 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - = ⌫
⭾ q w e r t y u i o p [ ] \
⇪ a s d f g h j k l ; ' ⏎
‹⇧ z x c v b n m , . / ⇧›
‹⌃ ‹⌘ ‹⌥ ␣ ⌥› ⌘› ⌃›
)
(deflayer base
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
‹⌘ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
∅ @C @A _ @A @C ∅
)
;; Ctrl tap-dance: single-tap as ctrl, double tap as ctrl-shift
(defalias C (multi ctl (tap-dance 200 (∅ shft))))
(deflayer alt
A-` A-1 A-2 A-3 A-4 A-5 A-6 A-7 A-8 A-9 A-0 A-- A-= A-⌫
A-⭾ A-q A-w A-e A-r A-t A-y A-u A-i A-o A-p A-[ A-] A-\
∅ A-a A-s C-⌫ C-▶ A-g A-h A-j A-k A-l A-; A-' A-⏎
∅ A-z A-x A-c A-v C-◀ A-n A-m A-, A-. A-/ ∅
∅ @C ‹⌥ A-␣ ⌥› @C ∅
)
(defalias A (tap-dance 200 ((layer-while-held alt) (multi alt shft))))
It's tedious and not able to do normal alt-tab.
Sorry for my bad English!
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In https://github.com/jtroo/kanata/blob/main/docs/config.adoc#multi, when d/f is pressed on alted-with-exceptions layer, the alt modifier is released but never restored
Describe the solution you'd like.
