Can't equip items on follower

[Swiftkill]

"Equip mode" in follower's inventory doesn't work. Instead it takes item out of their inventory.
The reason is likely that Shift key is a "Hold" key and is captured separately, even if GUI changes appearance.

SKSE 2.2.3, Skyrim 1.6.640. SkyUI 5.2. Test subject: Lydia.

The vanilla behavior with two separate, unmistakably different hotkeys for taking out\storing and equipping is more preferable and not error-prone. Same with books which lost ability to be read from shelf\bookcase (in pure AE interface they can be).
