After setting up home row modifiers keys via e.g. C/a (tap-hold-next-release 200 a lctl), KMonad works excellently!
Save for one issue: M-S-] (AKA Gui-Shift-], Command-}, Super-}, etc.), in particular when using the left home-row-mods, does not pass through, despite the normal right modifiers, left modifiers, and right home-row-mods working perfectly with it. I've checked sudo kmonad config.kbd -l debug and the log shows KMonad recognizing the meta and shift layers from the home row mods and all other keys except for ]; debug simply doesn't output anything at all upon press. I've looked my config up and down, but the odd, asymmetrical nature of the issue makes me suspect that it's a KMonad issue, and not a config or Firefox (which uses Command-Shift-] for moving right one tab) issue.
My system is a MacBook Pro 12,1 running macOS Monterey 12.6.8, and I am using the vosaica/kmonad branch and dext version 2.1.0 according to amiorin's guide. It appears that the fork has been merged, but I couldn't get kmonad/kmonad to work with a dext 2.1.0 from a Karabiner-Elements install (now removed) and the documentation doesn't reflect the merged branch; LMK if there is a way to use the features from vosaica/kmonad in the main branch, and I can try and make a PR for the documentation.
Here's my config, for good measure:

Edit: C-M-Backspace (aka control-alt-backspace, control-option-backspace) also suffers from a similar issue. I've heard this is a low-level "restart" command in GNU/Linux; do the missing key combos have something to do with that?
