Shift+Enter behaviour depends on the way you are connected to a
terminal. For example, it does not work for me over ssh connections,
while working fine when I'm using mc directly on my workstation.

There is a section in mc's TODO list that says something about `shift'
modifier. May be it is related with the problem somehow, but I don't
know for sure.
