There was a mismatch between the way `get_glass_key` generated the Java key
code for a given key press and how `getKeyCodeForChar` determined the key code
for the matching character. For example, when pressing the plus sign on a US
keyboard `get_glass_key` correctly generated `KeyCode.EQUALS` bu
The algorithm in `KeyCharacterCombination.match` relies on the call
`Toolkit.getKeyCodeForChar` which is difficult to implement correctly. It
defies the way most keyboard API’s work and no platform has got it right yet.
In particular the Mac and Linux implementations have to resort to a brute-fo
