Cant snap window to right side with german keyboard layout by shortcut

Reported by the1ando...@gmail.com, Jul 24 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS armv7l 8350.60.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.85 Safari/537.36
Platform: (Official Build) beta-channel veyron_mighty Firmware Google_Veyron_Mighty.6588.197.0

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Set Language to german, keyboard to German (qwertz)
2. Try to snap by alt+[ or alt+] won't work as suggest in help guide.
3. Try to snap with alt+ß (key right of "0"), it will toogle between 'normal','snap left', 'snap small left'.

What is the expected behavior?
1.There should be somewhere (in the shortcut-view in settings for example) shown that alt+ß snaps to left side.
2.There should be a key-combination for snapping to the right side on german layout, too.

What went wrong?
It won't snap to right.
Maybe it's because the german layout uses altgr (right alt key) together with 8 for displaying [ and with 9 for displaying ], so the default shortcut alt+[ and alt+] can't work.
It also won't work with sticky keys enable, i think the altgr+key "disables" the sticky alt key pressed before.

Did this work before? No

afakhry@ could you take a look?
FYI: Still reproducable in beta cyan:

Still reproducable with in beta 57, 
but now alt (left alt, not altgr) + ß snaps to left, at next press snaps to right then again to left and so on. The other combos still don't work.
