Ah, right, it's only enabled if cua-enable-cua-keys is nil...
(bindings--define-key menu [cua-emulation-mode]
(menu-bar-make-mm-toggle
cua-mode
"Shift movement mark region (CUA)"
"Use shifted movement keys to set and extend the region"
(:visible (and (boundp 'cua-enable-cua-keys)
(not cua-enable-cua-keys)))))
But even fixing the typo here seems like it produce the incorrect
result, because AFAICT the region is already extended using <S-left> in
"emacs -Q"?
