I think you misunderstood my request: I want to pass shift-{left,right}
shortcuts to the shell, indeed to emacs/org-mode running under Konsole.

So the trick would be to find where these shortcuts are intercepted
between Konsole/Trinity/Xorg and disable them.  So it is normal that
Konsole is not configured to handle shift-{left,right} shortcuts.

Passing shift-{left,right} to emacs works on a various terminal flavors
including gnome-terminal & xterm under gnome (I should test them under
Trinity as well!), wmii terminal, tty, osso-xterm under Maemo, etc.
