Simultaneous shortcut handling for vertex, edge, and face select

In Edit mode, if the user presses any simultaneous combination of the standard 1, 2, or 3 shortcut keys, could they all engage their respective modes?

(e.g. if the user presses the 2 and 3 keys simultaneously, the edge and face select buttons would both become active while the vertex select would unhighlight if it was previously active)

you can press 2 and shift 3, that does the same thing, and then use shift and number to remove selection mode if all 3 are active.

2 and 3 keys simultaneously

current blender key events handling dont support multiple keys at once, only key+modifiers

keyboards are not guarantied to support multiple keys and they are limited to their n-key rollover, but i guess its possible to have so shitty keyboard that it couldn't detect 2 keys simultaneously and making that default wouldn't be good solution


use default shift+1/2/3
