Description Ralf Sternberg CLA 2011-01-27 13:24:19 EST 
Currently, the events for key bindings and for SWT key listeners are handled separately. For some obscure reasons that relate to the different event types (key down, key press) and event fields (key code, char code, modifiers etc.) in the browser and and in SWT, both have to undergo different translations on the server.

We should revise those translations and handle all key events in the same way on the server. This would allow us to get rid of a lot of duplicated code in KeyBindingUtil.
