[Bug 23908] What's the good key value of printable keys with Meta key (Command key) on Mac?

--- Comment #4 from Travis Leithead [MSFT] <travil@microsoft.com> ---
In looking at this on Windows, Ctrl+A (when using an Arabic keyboard layout)
has the same behavior (a key value of 'a' is sent with the Ctrl modifier
active, otherwise the key code 'KeyA' generates the Arabic character.

>>In this case (i.e., while Command key is pressed), KeyboardEvent.key value >>should be the ASCII character? Or since it's not inputting text, it should be >>unmodified character (except Shift)?

>>If the former, the behavior is consistent with Control key pressed case.

I think it is the former.

What layout _is_ being used when the modifier key (Ctrl/Command) is active?
Masayuki reports an "ASCII capable" layout--wondering how to spec this?
