Proposal for a change in keyboard behaviour. event.keyCode doesn't cut it for correctly identifying keys. Proposed change is to use event.charCode || event.keyCode instead, which will detect keys are their ASCII code, with keyCode fallback for navigational keys.

Code written, seems to work in firefox 3.10 and opera 9.5 but needs more testing. Feel free to discuss over on http://code.google.com/p/jessyink/wiki/keyboardnav

Will upload the new code to https://code.launchpad.net/~ezindy/jessyink/ui-additions later today (when tested on Chrome / Safari).
