Hi, and thanks for the report!
Indeed, it seems the termion backend doesn't currently support shift+arrow (or ctrl+arrow). It doesn't seem to be supported in termion itself.
Termion does return an "unsupported" key code, and we could parse these codes here, but in that case we'd pretty much be doing the backend library's job. I'm not entirely against that, but I slightly prefer the alternatives:

Thanks, I have switched to Crossterm now, seems to work fine :)
