Re: Add Character Key Shortcuts to Editor's Draft

+1

The discussion got a bit confused towards the end, it wasn’t clear if the issue being addressed was specific to a user agent?

However, given that it is only for content implementing a particular feature, and it isn’t difficult to do (compared to creating that feature in the first place), I’m happy to see it in the draft for public comment. Hopefully the description/understanding can be fleshed out to cover that better.

Cheers,

-Alastair
