Re: [w3c/uievents] "keyCode" is the only way to work with KeyboardEvents now (#267)

We use promises when we think that one or more User Agents *might* want to have a permission (or some user agreement), which means that we use them whenever there are any security or privacy concerns. This is to give the UAs the flexibility they need to control the user experience as they see fit. Keyboard Map can provide info for fingerprinting, and while we worked to minimize the surface, there are still valid concerns.
