thanks guillermo :)
Cleaning events at VM level is important.

I changed this method to see better what happens:
HandMorph class>>showDebugEvent: evt

        ShowEvents == true ifTrue: [
                | ofs|
                Display fill: (0@0 extent: 500@120) rule: Form over
fillColor: Color white.
                ofs := (owner hands indexOf: self) - 1 * 60.
                evt printString displayAt: (0@ofs) + (evt isKeyboard
ifTrue: [0@30]
ifFalse: [0@0]).
                self keyboardFocus printString displayAt: (0@ofs)+(0@45).

                evt isKeyboard ifTrue: [  Transcript show: evt printString;cr ]
                ].


KeyboardEvent>> printOn: aStream
        "Print the receiver on a stream"

        aStream nextPut: $[.
        aStream nextPutAll: type; nextPutAll: ' '''.
        self printKeyStringOn: aStream.
        aStream nextPut: $'.

        aStream space; nextPutAll: 'keyValue: ', self keyValue  asString.

        aStream nextPut: $]

set
HandMorph showEvents:true

Now, pressing single space, gives me this:

[keyDown ' ' keyValue: 49]
[keystroke ' ' keyValue: 32]
[keyUp ' ' keyValue: 49]
[keyUp ' ' keyValue: 49]

Pressing delete key (or fn-backspace , for those who having a lot of
spare fingers to use bad keyboards):

[keyDown ' ' keyValue: 117]
[keystroke '���' keyValue: 188]
[keyUp ' ' keyValue: 117]
[keyUp ' ' keyValue: 117]

now, can someone tell me , why there is 2 keyUp events for each keyDown?

That I don't know
 

and of course, main question is why key values are different for
keydown and keystroke events?

That I'll dive right now into the vm to see what it is :).
 
(and why delete key is not 127, but 117 or 188?)

Editor expecting 127:

        cmdMap at: (127 + 1) put: #forwardDelete:.              "del key"
