In DOM3, why is the ['Spacebar' key value][1] not just 'Space'?
Personally that seems more natural and obvious to me, and someone
seems to agree with me because if you search the document for 'Space'
and 'Spacebar' (*including* quotes), you'll find just as many
(erroneous) mentions of the 'Space' key as mentions of the 'Spacebar'
key (excluding the tables defining the 'Spacebar' key value and its
legacy key code).
