Re: [whatwg/fullscreen] Keyboard lock (Issue #231)

From a user perspective, I don't think that there is much value in having an indeterminate set of key codes being routed to the site.  Expectations are everything here, so I would suggest that while a site might choose not to listen for certain key codes, they would have the option of intercepting any key (aside from those special sequences that the host reserves, like `ctrl-alt-del` on Windows).

The reason there is to avoid situations where expectations are built up about availability of certain sequences on one site, only to find that those expectations are invalid on another site.

Sites can of course not bother to listen for certain codes, as is their prerogative.  But they would receive them all.
