There is a problem in the whole keyboard events: they treat keys as characters and vice versa. And that's not always true:��

��- the backspace key is a key, but currently the image interprets it as a character because we only use keypress events in general.

��- the shift key is a key, and since current image does not use keyup nor keydown, we cannot know if JUST a shift is pressed normally.

I don't know anything about event handling, but I once had a look at Character constants, and found this:

How about that ?? This is wrong IMHO, ASCII / Unicode value 1 is SOH (Start of header), sometimes typed as CTRL-A. And there are other strange constants like that there.
