Thank you for explaining, I understand the problem. Looks like it's better off the way it is now, then.

I wouldn't generally interpret <MOD+letter> as just <letter>. Only if MOD is the Alfred Hotkey modifier and it's still the same modifier keypress that was used to open Alfred. Binding "ail" to "Mail" is a bad workaround because it clashes if you want "ail" to open something else. For example, I use "Saf" to open Safari. If I bind "af" to Safari, it clashes with Affinity Photo.

Hi! First off, thanks for Alfred, it's a great app and I've already used it 57308 times. There's a little problem: I have the Alfred Hotkey set to Ctrl+Space. Often when I fire up Alfred and start typing, I press the first 1-2 letters while I'm still holding Ctrl. So if I type "Mail", Alfred only gets "ail", and the Accessibility Inspector app is the first match. I often press Return very quickly without looking, so I end up opening the wrong apps. It would be awesome if Alfred received all the letters I typed, even while Ctrl was still pressed.
