Discussion: Potentially add more critical keys to the Windows keyboard system #76736

Description

@dkwingsmt

In the keyboard system in the Windoews embedding, "critical keys" are keys that are considered important, so that their factual status are checked at every event using GetKeyState.

For now, only L/R Shift keys and L/R Control keys are added for pressing checks, and 3 lock keys are added for toggling checks. We might consider adding the following keys:

  • AltGr
  • Input method keys (JP & KR)
  • Shift locks

Test them on actual hardware before adding.

This is an issue for a TODO.
