I'm sorry but this is further away from native, not closer. I just made
some tests, and native sets/clears VM_MENU whenever right or left ALT is
pressed/depressed. So we should be doing the same thing. Btw exactly the
same thing happens with CONTROL & SHIFT.

I will try to send these tests today-tomorrow. But you could try that
yourself using SendInput().
