Yes, we can do this but if we do then we cannot easily drop the MacRoman
support. But I'm fine with this solution if you prefer it.
Proposal: We add a "utf32Code" field to the sqKeyboardEvent that VMs are
supposed to fill in if they support extended input services, zero if
not. Everyone agree on this?

We really should be able to make that distinction by looking at the
keyDown exclusively. What's so hard about it? It seems that both Win &
*nix have trivial ways of giving us the information so it seems to me
that the Mac ought to be able to give us that information too, shouldn't it?
Cheers,
