/**
* The <code>PP_InputEvent_Key</code> struct represents a key up or key down
* event.
*
* Key up and key down events correspond to physical keys on the keyboard. The
* actual character that the user typed (if any) will be delivered in a
* "character" event.
*
* If the user loses focus on the module while a key is down, a key up
* event might not occur. For example, if the module has focus and the user
* presses and holds the shift key, the module will see a "shift down" message.
* Then if the user clicks elsewhere on the web page, the module's focus will
* be lost and no more input events will be delivered.
*
* If your module depends on receiving key up events, it should also handle
* "lost focus" as the equivalent of "all keys up."

/**
* The <code>PP_InputEvent_Character</code> struct represents a typed character
* event.
*
* Normally, the program will receive a key down event, followed by a character
* event, followed by a key up event. The character event will have any
* modifier keys applied. Obvious examples are symbols, where Shift-5 gives you
* a '%'. The key down and up events will give you the scan code for the "5"
* key, and the character event will give you the '%' character.
*
* You may not get a character event for all key down events if the key doesn't
* generate a character. Likewise, you may actually get multiple character
* events in a row. For example, some locales have an accent key that modifies
* the next character typed. You might get this stream of events: accent down,
* accent up (it didn't generate a character), letter key down, letter with
* accent character event (it was modified by the previous accent key), letter
* key up. If the letter can't be combined with the accent, like an umlaut and
* an 'R', the system might send umlaut down, umlaut up, 'R' key down, umlaut
* character (can't combine it with 'R', so just send the raw umlaut so it
* isn't lost"), 'R' character event, 'R' key up.
